The Russian Military in Contemporary Perspective: Volume 1 - Chapters 1 - 16

By United States Army War College

Volume 1 - Chapters 1 thru 16

By all indications, Vladimir Putin's aggressive policies against the West continue without interruption. These military and non-military activities oblige us to take account of the entire Russian defense establishment, its capabilities, and its objectives. This book aims to accomplish that task. Based on a 2016 conference with an international lineup of prominent experts on the Russian military, the papers collected here aim to provide a synoptic view of domestic developments, the ability of Russia's economy (and in particular, its science and technology sectors) to support its defense programs, its operations in Syria and Ukraine, Russian information warfare, nuclear issues, the Russian Navy, and a theater by theater assessment of the ongoing buildup of Russian forces and the challenges they face.

Why buy a book you can download for free? We print the paperback book so you don't have to.

First you gotta find a good clean (legible) copy and make sure it's the latest version (not always easy). Some documents found on the web are missing some pages or the image quality is so poor, they are difficult to read. If you find a good copy, you could print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people (typically its either out of paper or toner). If it's just a 10-page document, no problem, but if it's 250-pages, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour.

It's much more cost-effective to just order the bound paperback from Amazon.com

We include a Table of Contents on the back cover for quick reference. We print these paperbacks as a service so you don't have to. The books are compact, tightly-bound paperback, full-size (8 1/2 by 11 inches), with large text and glossy covers. 4th Watch Publishing Co. is a SDVOSB. https: //usgovpub.com
