      "2020 Hardcover Facsimile of the 1999 Edition. Unrestricted Warfare is a book on military strategy written in 1999 by two colonels in the People's Liberation Army. Its primary concern is how a nation such as the People's Republic of China can defeat a technologically superior opponent (such as the United States) through a variety of strategies. Rather than focusing on direct military confrontation, this book instead examines a variety of other means. Such means include using International Law (see Lawfare) and a variety of economic means to place one's opponent in a weakened position and circumvent the need for direct military action." -Wikipedia

      To Bear Any Burden presents the stories of 48 American and Asian witnesses who participated in the Vietnam War. The veterans, refugees, and officials who speak in this book come from widely divergent backgrounds. In their narratives they relive crucial moments in the preparation, execution, and aftermath of war. We hear, for example, POW Dan Pitzer learning of the American build-up from his bamboo cage; Vietnam operative Nguyen Tuong Lai describing a terrorist run into Saigon; Cambodian teacher Kassie Neou charming his executioners with fairy tales learned from the BBC.<p>To Bear Any Burden gives us a riveting eyewitness account of the war and also reclaims from this tragic continuum patterns of courage and dedication.</p>
