Synopsis
The fourth volume in a pioneering series on the Chinese military, Imagined Enemies illuminates the People's Liberation Army's central decisionmaking system, operational plans and systems, and strategies for war against Taiwan and the United States., The fourth and final volume in a pioneering series on the Chinese military, Imagined Enemies offers an unprecedented look at its history, operational structure, modernization, and strategy. Beginnning with an examination of culturee adn thought in Part I, the authors explore the transition away transition away from Mao Zedong's revolutionary doctrine, the conflict with Moscow, and Beijing's preoccupation with Taiwanese separatism and preparations for war to thwart it. Part II focuses on operational and policy decisions in the National Command Authority and, subsequently, in the People's Liberation Army. Part III provides a detailed study of the Second Artillery, China's strategic rocket forces. The book concludes with the transformation of military strategy and shows how it is being tested in military exercises, with Taiwan and the United States as "imagined enemies."

    The shipping was fast. I was wondering why the description said damaged dust jacket when in fact it's in wonderful condition. The book was very well protected in the envelope it arrived in. I love the price and I'm very happy with my purchase. Perfect customer service in every way!
