Laid in is an interesting letter to the previous owner with an extensive review of this book. An astonishing report on combat's psychological tolls the author, an army intelligence officer-turned-academician sounds a startling note here. War has become an activity that has surpassed the ability of human beings to endure it. He arrays substantial and convincing evidence to support this assertion, beginning with a horrifying inventory of contemporary nonnuclear weaponry. driving home the point that conventional warfare is now 600 percent more destructive than during WWII. He goes on to examine the symptoms of psychological collapse in war, then looks at governments' strenuous but largely futile attempts to stave off these symptoms and their underlying causes. A frightening summary of on-going research into stress-preventive chemicals follows chemicals that transform soldiers into fighting machines, but at the sacrifice of their humanity. This powerful book deserves a wide audience.
