Revolutionary technological innovations over the past half-century, many of which evolved from defence systems, have transformed our relationship with the seas. The range of activities - scientific, commercial & military - that are now conducted on, below& above the waters has greatly increased, as has our scientific knowledge. This work provides a review of both the civil & the military aspects of seapower as we move into the twenty-first century. In the wake of the Gulf, Bosnian & Kosovan conflicts, not to mention numerous sea-based humanitarian interventions all around the world, there is huge debate about the function & composition of navies. Can we now take western sea-control for granted?
