The bomber mafia : a dream, a temptation, and the longest night of the second world war / Malcolm Gladwell.
"How a small team of Utopian Air Force strategists attempted to win World War II through precision bombing-only to witness Curtis LeMay defeat Japan from the air, by burning nearly 70 of its cities to the ground. A tale of idealists, grim pragmatists, technologists, and the wages of war"-- Provided by publisher.
