Military professionals - and, for that matter, interested amateurs - who seek to explore the issue of how the Yom Kippur War, particularly the issue of how the experience of the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) during that war, moulded the armed forces of the United States are enthusiastically encouraged to consult Sterling's book, as are those professionals and amateurs concerned more broadly with the impact of foreign wars on these forces. * Israel Affairs *
