Sommario/riassunto |
|
Is it possible for two combatants who possess equally strong air forces to conduct limited warfare by restraining air operations? 'Restraining Air Power' asks this question and allows contributing authors to provide theoretical and empirical assessments of restrained air warfare through five historical case studies since 1945. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book introduces the scientists who study Antarctica and those who support their work ranging from climate study to research on polar plants and animals. Many scientists live at the McMurdo Research Station, but others may do their work in mobile stations, battling the cold, dry environment while trying to make fantastic science discoveries. Photographs show scientists at work as well as the modern technology they use to get their job done. |
