Recenzii
This book is an exposé on the biggest long-term cost of wars
At last, a definitive work that clearly and carefully accounts for survival and life beyond survival
Fazal has conducted an impressive amount of research on the topic of military medicine and masterfully woven together evidence, arguments, and stories into a remarkably engaging read. It will be a must-read not just for military buffs, historians, and political scientists but also wider audiences who will find the book both accessible and immensely edifying.
Americans underestimate the costs of war because they fail to grasp the human and financial impact of war injuries, Tanisha Fazal argues. Drawing upon extensive research on wounded soldiers and their medical treatment since the Civil War, Military Medicine and the Hidden Costs of War powerfully illuminates this crucial issue. A significant contribution to our understanding of the impact of war on American society.
The book is very clear and well written.
