The Cuban Democratic Experience
"A serious attempt to explore the strengths and weaknesses of Cuba's Auténtico regime and its programs and failings in service of democracy.

Special Forces, Strategy and the War on Terror
This volume undertakes a systematic analysis of the relationship between Special Forces and contemporary strategy, explaining the resurgence of interest in Special Forces, particularly in the West, by exploring their appeal over traditional conventional force options in the current ‘War on Terror’.
