The insubordinate and the noncompliant : case studies of Canadian mutiny and disobedience, 1920 to present / edited by Howard G. Coombs ; foreword by Major-General P.R. Hussey.: D2-201/1-2007E-PDF

"The Insubordinate and the Noncompliant: Case Studies of Canadian Mutiny and Disobedience, 1920 to Present builds upon the scholarship of the previous two Canadian Forces Leadership Institute (CFLI) volumes, The Unwilling and the Reluctant: Theoretical Perspectives on Disobedience in the Military and The Apathetic and theDefiant: Case Studies of Canadian Mutiny and Disobedience,1812-1919, to form a collection of material that elaborates on the theory and historical interpretations of these topics within a Canadian context over the past two centuries. As such, this book represents another step towards the CFLI Strategic Leadership Writing Project's goal of creating a distinct body of professional material that captures the experiences of Canadian military leadership"--Foreword, page [9].
