Description:
China's military transformation represents one of the most significant geo-strategic developments of the 21st century. With billions of dollars allocated to modernize the People’s Liberation Army (PLA), China is ambitiously enhancing its military capabilities to rival those of the United States. This comprehensive and insightful book by leading expert You Ji delves deeply into the contemporary changes taking place within the PLA, examining its ground, aerospace, and maritime forces.
You Ji’s analysis highlights the PLA’s responses to asymmetric threats and the critical role of the People’s Armed Police in maintaining internal stability. As the PLA evolves, transformations in personnel, technology, and strategic objectives have begun to alter the historical harmony between the Communist Party of China (CCP) and the PLA. With the PLA’s increasing professionalization and autonomy, the traditional loyalty to the ruling Party appears to be wavering.
This shift raises important questions about China's political landscape and its military relations within the Asia-Pacific region. 'China's Military Transformation' is an essential read for scholars, policymakers, and anyone interested in the dynamics of China's military rise and its implications for global security.

Description:
China s military transformation is one of the major geo-strategic developments of the 21st Century. Billions of dollars are being spent modernizing The People s Liberation Army (PLA) as China seeks to upgrade and expand its military capabilities to rival the US.
In this cutting-edge analysis, You Ji, a leading expert on China s military affairs, explores the changes taking places within the PLA today, covering its ground, aerospace and maritime forces, its ability to meet asymmetric threats, and the growing role played by the People s Armed Police in quelling dissent in China. He shows how these transformations in personnel, technology and strategic goals are slowly driving a wedge between China s two most powerful institutions. Until recently, relations between the CCP and PLA were harmonious, but as the PLA becomes increasingly professionalized and autonomous so its unconditional loyalty to the ruling Party may weaken. The changing relationship between the CCP and PLA, he argues, is likely to have profound implications for China s own political development and the balance of power in the Asia-Pacific region.
Comprehensive and incisive, this timely book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the nature and consequences of China s military rise.

Amazing!
Format: Board book
I love this book. It's a great book for children with speech issues to use to practice, and it is terrific for early literacy. The story is super cute, and the pictures are awesome. Literally, the only thing that could be improved is if the faces of the parents were shown in all the pages. I don't understand why they are cut off on several pages. Otherwise, I highly recommend!

Definitely toddler and younger
Format: Kindle
This books is cute and has a ton of repetition. It’s very simple and sweet - but it says baby-3 years of age and I think 2.5 and under is the highest age I’d go. My three year old got bored after two readings, so we’re going to give it to her little cousin.
Love that it’s a board book so it will stand up to tiny hands!

Adorable and useful!
Format: Kindle
Great for early language and sounds. As a mom and a special education teacher I love this book. Very sweet and enjoyable for a little one. But most importantly, written by a speech pathologist with all of the so important early sounds.

Great book for pre reading skills and communication, but poor quality, especially for price
Format: Board book, Format: Board book
My 2 year old grandson loves this book. He has memorized the words from each page and loves to point to different things on each page, when asked, and add his own commentary like “puppy is sleeping”. The only reason for minus 1 star is quality of book. Even though it’s a board book, the pages are peeling. Almost took 2 stars off, but it’s a really good book. However, I’m not sure what good it will be when the pictures peel off the page and we have no content to read.
I would like seller to contact me re: book falling apart.
