Sobre este artículo

UK,8vo HB+dw/dj,1st edn.VG/VG+.Owner inscrptn.Protected dw/dj, slightly grubbed.Fore-edges some ageing and light spotting; contents solid and clean.UK,small 8vo HB+dw/dj,1st edn,176pp includes,b/w map,54 b/w photographs,a biblio and an index. The modern Chinese army has been in existence for 25 years and has been at war,somewhere,for most of that time.It is thus the most battle-hardened army in the world.Its four major campaigns have been in Tibet,Korea,India and the Russian confrontation in Mongolia - all on China's border.But so little is known of this army, from the echelons of command down to the fighting soldier,that most Westerners regard China as aggressively expansionist,and American generals can still be heard to claim that Chinese troops are no match for Western or Western-armed and trained forces - two views which Corr holds up for re-examination. China's military achievements in these campaigns have not before been considered together as a single developing story.Corr does so now against the background of China's political advancement. He presents both sides of each argument,and demonstrates that the Chinese attitude is usually racial rather than political: they are Chinese first and Communist second.He examines the internal political divisions of the People's Liberation Army,especially the 'Red versus expert' debate, culminating in the mysterious death in 1971 of Lin Piao. The book concludes with an up-to-date (1974) assessment of the Red Army's strength,potential,and political motivation.It is illustrated with 59 photographs and maps,and 2 charts present the military/political organisation of China,and the regional organisation of the P.L.A.
