The book maps the strategic competition between the U.S. and China, its history, and the contemporary outlook of their armed forces. It analyses the wars fought by each of these forces, their military operations, operations other than war, and draws up a comparative analysis between the military doctrines of both nations. The author examines the implications of American and Chinese military doctrine and the varying degrees of cooperation, competition, and potential conflict in the Western Pacific. Finally, the book argues for possibilities of cooperation between the two superpowers and suggests ways of minimising potential future conflict. The volume will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of international relations, military and strategic studies, and Asian studies.
