Franz-Stefan Gady contends that the US military approach to a potential conflict over Taiwan is unlikely to succeed, relying heavily on both rapidly established information superiority and a decisive victory. This may increase the threat of nuclear escalation between the world's only superpowers.The more likely scenario is a prolonged war of attrition across land, sea, air, space and cyberspace. America's society, armed forces and industrial capacity are ill-prepared for this--a deficiency stemming from a military culture that prioritises advanced technology over mass, and from a lack of public or political will for the sacrifices required by such a conflict.Gady's superb research and analysis, based on US doctrine, force structure and general 'ways of war', reveal the significant risks to the United States in a potential conflict with China, whether in the 2020s or 2030s.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52225576796448,"sku":"NEW0197838308","price":39.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/512zq_09gVL.jpg?v=1787304927","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/how-the-united-states-would-fight-china-the-risks-of-pursuing-a-rapid-victory-0197838308","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
