Download or read book Offense and Defense in the International System written by and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of military factors in international relations may seem obvious, but the causal linkages are often difficult to define. Surveying a long sweep of history, and the ins and outs of offensive weaponry, George H. Quester offers an overview of how military technology has shaped our international system. Contemporary events have made this book as timely as ever. As Americans renew the debate on mi"ssile defense, and as the danger of nuclear-capable rogue states and their terrorist allies is evident as never before, the need to understand the differences between defensive and offensive weapons has taken on a new urgency. Quester shows that very careful analysis is required here, as some important elementary distinctions need to be drawn. His analysis covers naval and air warfare, as well as ground combat, and he deals with the offensive or defensive leanings of guerrilla warfare. Quester compares the post-World War II nuclear balance with military situations before 1945. Quester also ties in domestic economic, social, political, and scientific trends, and how they influence international politics. Quester considers when a military situation favors striking first in a crisis(an offensive situation), and when a nation may be better off waiting for the other side to begin a war(defensive). In his new introduction, Quester reviews the post-Cold War debate among political and military analysts as to the contemporary relevance of these concepts and offers a powerful rebuttal to those who would dismiss the offense/defense distinction as outmoded, illusory, or a function of propaganda. Above all, the book demonstrates that we can learn a great deal from our recent and not-so-recent historical experience with nuclear weaponry. Nuclear weapons and their proliferation make the area of international conflict more perilous than ever. This book will be of interest to military analysts and students of international affairs. George H. Quester is professor of government and politics at the University of Maryland. His books include Nuclear Monopoly, Deterrence Before Hiroshima (both available from Transaction), Nuclear Diplomacy, The Politics of Nuclear Proliferation, and American Foreign Policy: The Lost Consensus.
Book Synopsis The Royal Navy and Anti-submarine Warfare, 1917-49 by : Malcolm Llewellyn-Jones
Download or read book The Royal Navy and Anti-submarine Warfare, 1917-49 written by Malcolm Llewellyn-Jones and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2006 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential new account of how anti-submarine warfare is conducted, with a focus on both historic and present-day operations. This new book shows how until 1944 U-boats operated as submersible torpedo craft which relied heavily on the surface for movement and charging their batteries. This pattern was repeated in WWII until Allied anti-submarine countermeasures had forced the Germans to modify their existing U-boats with the schnorkel. Countermeasures along also pushed the development of high-speed U-boats capable of continuously submerged operations. This study shows how these improved submarines became benchmark of the post-war Russian submarine challenge. Royal Navy doctrine was developed by professional anti-submarine officers, and based on the well-tried combination of defensive and offensive anti-submarine measures that had stood the press of time since 1917, notwithstanding considerable technological change. This consistent and holistic view of anti-submarine warfare has not been understood by most of the subsequent historians of these anti-submarine campaigns, and this book provides an essential and new insight into how Cold War, and indeed modern, anti-submarine warfare is conducted.

Book Synopsis Notes on Torpedoes, Offensive and Defensive (Classic Reprint) by : Richard Hugh Stotherd
Download or read book Notes on Torpedoes, Offensive and Defensive (Classic Reprint) written by Richard Hugh Stotherd and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on Torpedoes, Offensive and Defensive The following pages on the subject of submarine mines have been compiled from the various papers which have been drawn up, and experiments which have been made during the last three or four years in the course of instruction carried on at the School of Military Engineering, Chatham. The object in view has been to put the officers and men instructed in possession of a hand-book, to which they may refer should they, at any future time, be called upon to put in practice what they have learned. The course of instruction has now been so far perfected, in conformity with certain principles deduced from practical trial, that the system taught might at any time be adopted for actual service, and as improvements are made, they may, from time to time, be introduced. A great deal of valuable information has been derived from Captain Harding Stewards very interesting "Notes on Submarine Mines," which was perhaps the first practical work ever published on this subject. Lieutenant S. Anderson, R. E., assistant instructor in telegraphy and submarine mining, at Chatham, and Lieutenants O. Chadwick, H. Jekyll, J. T. Bucknill, R. F. Moore, and R. Y. Armstrong, R. E., who have been temporarily attached at various periods to the School of Submarine Mining, have been indefatigable in carrying on numerous experiments, with a view to perfecting our system, and to them a great deal of credit is due. Finally, we have had the benefit of the valuable series of experiments carried on, and of the information collected, by the floating obstruction committee, of which Lieutenant-Colonel Fisher, C. B., R. E., and F. Abel, esq., F. E. S., chemist to the war department, were members. These officers have, moreover, contributed personally much valuable information, of which, in carrying on the experiments of the above-mentioned committee, they had become possessed. Captain W.Dawson, R. N., late secretary to the floating obstruction committee, has very kindly looked over Chapters XIV and XV, on "Clearing Channels of Submarine Mines" and "Locomotive Torpedoes," and Commander F. Harvey, R. N., has been good enough to furnish information for the description of his sea torpedo. Commander Harvey is about to publish a book giving a description of his torpedo, in which any further details concerning it will be found.

Book Synopsis Slide Rules and Submarines by : Montgomery C. Meigs
Download or read book Slide Rules and Submarines written by Montgomery C. Meigs and published by The Minerva Group, Inc.. This book was released on 2002-06 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classic problem of when to depend on lessons learned from previous conflicts and when to employ new tactics and technology always confronts military leaders. At the beginning of World War II, for example, Allied naval strategists were prepared to do battle using traditional tactics against surface vessels, but - this study contends - not against submarines; because the strategists failed to appreciate either the damage done by submarines in World War I or the tactics that had worked successfully against them. Consequently, from the beginning of World War II to mid-1943, German U-boats were able to mount a devastating campaign against Allied shipping. In Slide Rules and Submarines, Montgomery Meigs describes how the allies learned to counter the U-boat threat. Using new technology - and new tactics derived from scientific methods - they devised countermeasures to defeat the German submarine menace. Then, continuing to apply those successful measures, they went on to negate the Japanese submarine threat in the Pacific. The author cites the crucial role of civilian scientists - the "outsiders" - who worked with military staffs and operational commanders of the campaign at sea. Their open minds and objective methods were essential for the application of such tactical advances as sonar and radar, acoustic torpedoes, depth finders, and code breaking to the battle. As this study illustrates, the importance of such timely and innovative cooperation among scientists, the research and development community, and military commanders in bringing technological knowledge to bear for operational and strategic advantage cannot be overstated. Meigs study of how such cooperation succeeded in the crucible of wartime crisis is itself an example of how the lessons of the past can serve us well today. J. A.

Download or read book The U-boat Hunters written by Marc Milner and published by US Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Royal Canadian Navy is best known for its role in the defence of convoys against attacks by U-boats, particularly those in the mid-Atlantic from 1941 to 1943. Marc Milner's 1985 book, North Atlantic Run: The Royal Canadian Navy and the Battle for the Convoys, was the first scholarly analysis of those crucial defensive operations. The U-Boat Hunters takes up the story for the last two years of the war, when the measurement of operational effectiveness at sea shifted from success in defending convoys to the ability to hunt down and sink U-boats. The U-Boat Hunters, which completes Milner's analysis of the RCN's battle with Germany's submarines, is a pioneering study of the final years of the Atlantic war and a landmark work in both Canadian and modern naval history.
