W. Messner. The book "Mussolini's Army at War: Regio Esercito Commands and Divisions" by James J. W. Messner provides a comprehensive overview of the Italian military during World War II, focusing on the organization, structure, and operations of the Regio Esercito (Royal Army) and its various commands and divisions. The author, an expert in modern military history, draws on extensive archival research to offer a detailed and nuanced understanding of the Italian army's performance on the battlefield, highlighting both its successes and failures. One of the key themes of the book is the evolution of technology and its impact on military strategy and tactics. The author demonstrates how the Regio Esercito's reliance on obsolete equipment and outdated tactics hindered its effectiveness, particularly in the early years of the war. However, as the conflict progressed, the Italians adapted and innovated, incorporating new technologies and strategies into their military operations. This process of technological evolution is a crucial aspect of modern warfare and one that must be studied and understood in order to ensure the survival of humanity and the unification of people in a warring state. The book also emphasizes the importance of developing a personal paradigm for perceiving the technological process of developing modern knowledge.
