| Abstract

:
|
Analyzes the themes underlying the strategic struggles in East Asia, beginning with the crucial event of the 1904-05 Russo-Japanese War. This book shows why military history is relevant in understanding strategic problems, and how the most important areas of current affairs have their roots in often forgotten corners of military history.
