Seller's Description:
Good. 25 cm, 318, wraps, notes, minor wear and soiling to covers, some light yellow highlighting to text. Low-intensity warfare poses important problems for American interests and policy. And yet, because of the lack of understanding of low-intensity conflict, the United States is ill prepared to face its consequences. This book is a serious effort to make low-intensity conflict more understandable. Essays discuss the Middle East, Russia, Guatemala, El Salvador, Africa, and Southeast Asia.
