In Seapower: A Guide for the Twenty-First Century, noted maritime strategist Geoffrey Till provides an expansive introduction to the maritime domain, exploring the broad principles involved and, as of 2018, the challenges Till saw ahead. Till frames his analysis through five principal factors that naval strategists need to consider: the sea as a resource, the sea as a medium for transportation and exchange, the seas as a medium of information and the exchange of ideas, the sea as a medium for dominion, and the sea as an area of sovereignty. As Till emphasizes within this valuable volume, the maritime domain is a complex environment and a continuing field of both competition and collaboration.
