Changing orders: the evolution of the world's armies, 1945 to the present - London: Arms and Armour Press, 1994 - 352p.
The information is organized into five historical snapshots each of about a decade which examine the history and development of the armies country by country. The performance of the armies in various conflicts is assessed and through different paths of development are validated or repudiated. World wide trends are also identified and projected into the twenty first century. The increasing technological growth and sophistication of the world's armies and the computerization of warfare will doubtless ensure an ever developing role for national armed forces in the future.
