A substantial amount of work has been carried out to explore the
military systems of Western Europe during the early modern era, but
the military trajectories of the Asian states have received
relatively little attention. This study provides the first
comparative study of the major Asian empires' military systems and
explores the extent of the impact of West European military
transition on the extra-European world. Kaushik Roy conducts a
comparative analysis of the armies and navies of the large agrarian
bureaucratic empires of Asia, focusing on the question of how far
the Asian polities were able to integrate gunpowder weapons in
their military systems. "Military Transition in Early Modern Asia,
1400-1750" offers important insights into the common patterns in
war making across the region, and the impact of firearms and
artillery.
