基本説明

Comparing a large number of 'low-intensity' wars that take place for the most part in Third World countries, the authors draw conclusions about the nature of warfare today.

Full Description

This book is designed to help the reader better understand the conduct of war by focusing on the 'how' not the 'why' of warfare. It examines a number of crucial dimensions of contemporary armed conflict such as: the strategies, operations, tactics, doctrines and weapons of conventional and low-intensity war; military geography; the cultural underpinnings of strategies and tactics; arms resupply, security assistance, and foreign intervention.
