As a result, the Indian Army assessed its mistakes to determine what changes were needed to rebuild itself into a more capable fighting force. Marston looks at the Indian Army as a reform-minded organization, one that was able to take lessons from this major defeat, implement the necessary więcej...

    This history of NATO concentrates on the differences within the alliance, particularly between the US and its European partners. NATO's "war on terror" began on September 11, 2001, as members united in response to the assault on the United States, but this spirit did not last long. Within a few weeks, old fissures within the alliance re-emerged, threatening once again to dissolve an entity that had survived over half a century. In the first two generations of NATO's existence, the Cold War with the Soviet Union więcej...

Recent scholarship, too, has given much attention to the importance of genre, since the genre in which a work is written often conveys knowledge więcej...
