Peter Paret examines the intellectual and organizational collapse of the Prussian military during the 1806 campaign against Napoleon. Through a rigorous analysis of institutional inertia and the failure of strategic doctrine, the work explores how this catastrophic defeat forced a fundamental reassessment of military theory and the nature of modern warfare in nineteenth-century Europe.
