However states and their militaries have preconceived ideas about warfare and try to wage ware according to those ideas; consequently the basics of counterinsurgency have had to be learned over and over again.

Includes 28 articles of counterinsurgency, which can be seen as the successor to T E Lawrence's 27 articles.
