Description: The Dragon's Quantum Leap Transforming From a Mechanized to an Informatized Force Timothy L. Thomas Foreign Military Studies Office (FMSO), Ft Leavenworth, KS Paperback - Preowned - Good Condition Chinese observations of warfare in the information age have resulted in a widespread transformation and metamorphosis of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) from a mechanized to an informatized force. This transformation has affected nearly every aspect of China’s military from strategy to logistics to educational development. The Dragon’s Quantum Leap intends to peel back the transformation process and uncover the impact of new modes of thought on several key segments of military development (culture, stratagems, crisis management, deception, and reconnaissance among other elements) that digital-age thought is affecting. New military thinking in the PLA, in conjunction with digital advancements in other areas (economic, diplomatic, and so on), has resulted in the closer integration of military and civilian planning and actions. As a result of these improvements, Chinese military theory and systems will be more flexible and competitive, enabling the PLA to become an aspiring superpower in the twenty-first century. The Dragon’s Quantum Leap examines this transformation in detail. The book will cause the general military reader and the Chinese security specialist to think in different terms about Chinese military activities and to consider things yet unconsidered.
