Publisher Description:
This volume provides unique, valuable insights on how the PLA has applied the lessons learned from others' military actions to its own strategic planning. For example, the PLA rapidly oriented itself to the importance of airpower, command and control, and precision munitions from the U.S. experience in Operations DESERT SHIELD, DESERT STORM and the air war in Kosovo. They also learned valuable lessons the Iran-Iraq "War of the Cities" missile duels and tactical and strategic uses of missiles. Of equal significance are the lessons learned by China's armed forces such as the U.S. Counterinsurgency Operations in Afghanistan and other missions that now apply to its new non-traditional military roles; such as the best practices to address all-hazard disasters and common transnational threats of piracy and terrorism.

Why buy a book you can download for free? We print this book so you don't have to.

First you gotta find a good clean (legible) copy and make sure it's the latest version (not always easy). Some documents found on the web are missing some pages or the image quality is so poor, they are difficult to read. We look over each document carefully and replace poor quality images by going back to the original source document. We proof each document to make sure it's all there - including all changes. If you find a good copy, you could print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people (typically its either out of paper or toner). If it's just a 10-page document, no problem, but if it's 250-pages, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour.

It's much more cost-effective to just order the latest version from Amazon.com
