This book is crafted around soldiers' personal descriptions of
their war experiences in Afghanistan and Iraq, culminating in
life-altering injuries to the brain and psyche, along with the
equally dramatic story of their recoveries. An irony of America's
21st century wars has been that while our combat medical and
medevac capabilities have grown enormously, the nature of many of
America's soldiers' wounds have undergone a subtle change. Men and
women who survive the thick of combat, including repeated
concussion blasts, increasingly present a difficult-to-detect kind
of injury, no less debilitating than wounds from bullets or
shrapnel. Hidden Battles on Unseen Fronts documents the increasing
cases of physical or mental brain trauma among U.S. vets that are a
result of more soldiers surviving flesh wounds in battle. The book
includes interviews with troops and family members and essays by
internationally known mental health professionals,
veterans'advocates, and members of the Veterans Administration and
Department of Defence, all of whom work to support those affected.
From combat soldiers and even amputees, who discover that their
greatest disability is their head, to support personnel such as
Devore Barlowe, who returns from Iraq with severe PTSD, but still
juggles her job and the single mothering of two young children, the
voices of these warriors reinforce the book's over-arching theme of
resilience and courage. About the Author Celia Straus is author of
best-seller Prayers On My Pillow, and a film writer and producer
who has been writing about the war experiences of service members
and their families since 2003.
