Wars of Ignorance explains the dangerous pattern of leaders feeling certain they know how war will unfold despite the inherent uncertainties of warfare. A leader's misplaced certainty originates in stunted advisory processes: leaders consistently silence advisers from the bureaucracy that conducts diplomacy.
