Using case studies from the military domain, this book presents and validates a model of teamwork and decision-making factors associated with incidents of fratricide. It offers a review and evaluation of contemporary theoretical perspectives as well as a range of accident analysis approaches. The book also presents a novel theory of fratricide and a new methodology for assessing it.
