By illuminating the extent to which wars are fought internally as well as externally, this book expands the discussion about wars and the men and women who fight them. With a close-up look at servicemen and women preparing for, experiencing and returning home from war, Sherman probes the psyche of today's soldiers - examining how they learn to kill and to leave the killing behind.
