Steiner Left His Position As Associate Professor At Ucla In 1942 To Serve As A Captain In The Marine Corps. He Served In The World War Ii Marshall And Gilbert Islands Campaigns, And Participated In The Fighting On Saipan, Tinian, And Guam. He Was Attached As Operations Officer To The Staff Of Lieutenant General Holland M.

Steiner Also Served At Iwo Jima. Steiner First Visited India And China As A Marine Corps Officer And Later Made These Regions His Area Of Expertise. His Authored Works Include Communist China In The World Community (1961), Principles And Problems Of International Relations (1940), Government In Fascist Italy (1938), And The Lecture Series Mussolini's Italy (1936-37).

He Never Mastered The Chinese Language, But Was Selected By His Peers To Participate In The Formation Of The Joint Committee On Contemporary China Of The Social Science Research Council And The American Council Of Learned Societies.
