Zustand: Very Good. Some mild shelfwear.

hardcover. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Walter Darnell Jacobs was an American Political scientist and educator. He earned a Doctor of Philosophy in Public Law, Columbia University in 1961. He served in WWII and retired as a Colonel. He was a Research Specialist, 1959-1961; and faculty at U. Maryland., College Park, 1961-1981. Derived from an obituary found on line: General D. K. "Monty" Palit was a prolific writer and original thinker, he has had a profound influence on the strategic thinking and polices of India. Palit was no armchair thinker, and his exploits in the first Jammu Kashmir War of 1947-48 are proof of that. In command of the famed 3-battalion 9 Gorkha Rifles, he fought in the Poonch sector. Under his inspiring leadership, the battalion attacked and captured the 10,000-foot-high Mohammad ni Gali, that overlooks the strategic Haji Pir pass. As battalion commander, he personally led the attack and was severely wounded in the operations and evacuated from the battlefield. For this act of conspicuous bravery, Palit was awarded the Vir Chakra. The second most important episode in his military career was his command of the 7 Brigade in the crucial Tawang sector on the China border in 1960-61. Subsequent to this he was the director general military operations during the 1962 India-China war. But even more than Palit's contribution to strategy and policy-making, he was a soldier-scholar at heart. It is this area of his that has made a lasting contribution to national defense. But his most valuable contributions were Essentials of Military Knowledge and War in the Age of Nuclear Deterrence. It must be remembered that this latter book was written in the 1960s, and at that time the Indian army, even at the highest level, had little interest in nuclear war doctrines. Even as late as 1979-80, only lip service was paid to nuclear war. Palit was a visionary who saw its relevance and tried his best to educate Indians on this very crucial issue. General Palit had a keen mind to spot the revolutionary changes that were taking place in the relationship between military tactics and technology. By the mid 20th century, technology had gained its own independent momentum and began to dictate tactics and even strategy. He saw this very clearly in the 1973 Yom Kippur war in the Middle East. His books were widely read not only in India but were compulsory reading in the training institutes of advanced countries like the UK and the US.
