Wilfred Burchett, Derek Roebuck

This professional literature in the field of military science explores the topic of recruiting people for warfare. The authors deal with mercenaries, people who participate in armed conflicts motivated by the desire for personal gain.

A mercenary is a person who participates in an armed conflict, "is motivated to participate in hostilities primarily by a desire for personal gain and, in fact, has been promised, by or on behalf of a party to the conflict, material compensation significantly more than what is promised or paid to combatants of similar ranks and functions in the armed forces of that party".
