Summary: The books shows a brave and well educated author.
Comment: Leslie Cockburn is definetly well versed in the subject of foreign affairs in genera l.

On her Book OUT OF CONTROL the author demosnstrates how dangerous it is for the Uni ted States to commit awful mistakes on matters of agresive policy, low intensity warfare, an d cowboy type blunders that cause pain and suffering to very poor, naive peoples, in co nditions unimaginable to the average American Citizen.

Studying this book ought to be a must for anybody interested in US Relations with third world countries.

It brings to min d the question M-? did Americans actually learn anything from Viet Nam ?.

The book actua lly demonstrates the possibilities of another Viet Nam, despite the so called "modern warfare". War essentially is hell, and the United States may drive itself into a situation where man to man combat is indispensable, and modern electronic gadgets are seco ndary to traditional fighting.

Writing this book requiered courage and dedication to t he extreme of risking the authors phisical life in Central America, and perhaps her professi onal life en the United States itself.

If only must politicians in Washington would learn from Ms. Cockburns book, then we, in the third world would fill safer.
