Summary, etc. Following the breakup of the bi-polar Cold War between the American and Russian superpowers, there has been an increase in small wars, insurrections, revolts and other forms of low intensity conflict. This book looks at the make up of these forms of conflict and, based on experience since the end of the Second World War, at the USA's apparent inability to respond effectively. Suggests that the traditional American approach of massive force applied surgically does not provide a solution. Recommends that a more unconventional strategy must be adopted if will and zeal are to be overcome.
