By the Numbers
Vijay Gokhale's book 'China's Wars: The Politics and Diplomacy Behind Military Coercion' is a sincere and in-depth attempt to understand why and when China initiates war or conflict. The book is especially important for India due to China's increasing economic and military power, Xi Jinping's aggression, and border disputes with India.
The book analyzes China's past wars and attempts to understand its potential future targets. However, the book falls short in some areas and cannot fully predict China's future behavior.
Another important aspect of the book is its analysis of China's 'grey zone' tactics and how they are used. These tactics are crucial in understanding China's potential future moves.
