World Military History
A quick look at the various professional development and
leadership reading lists published by the individual branches of the
United States military reveals that the recommendations on military
history books tend to be specific to the heritage of that branch.
Gaining a perspective on world military history can be a fairly hit or
miss proposition. However, the War College has developed a
comprehensive list of military history books that tell the story from
the Middle Ages to the Modern Day.
Hi Tech Criminal Justice has added this collection to the Armed
Forces Reading Lists. A comprehensive view of world military history is
now available via a convenient drop down menu!

What the Reviewer's are Saying |
Police
technology is being spun out at a dizzying rate. What's effective?
What's Orwellian? What is cutting edge? What is pure fantasy? Policing
has always been information "intensive." And lately, it is increasingly
technological, no matter what specialty you work; or niche of the
business you inhabit. Too bad there isn't a base course - or a basic
text book - that lays out all this welter of police technology and ties
it all together in an easily digestible comprehensive manner.
