Author
The faces of war are many, encompassing women, children, and men, soldiers and civilians. Their stories appear in history, literature, and art, from earliest times to events reported in today's newspapers. The essays comprising this volume explore the human face of war from multiple perspectives--psychology, literature, history, and law--and through the eyes of many societies and cultures--American and Iraqi, English and French, Roman and Jew. What emerges is a mosaic of war's Many Faces that reveal the human condition and its response to the most challenging of life's many experiences--the violence of War.

Index 
''Wars never end, exactly, but play on again and again in the lives and faces of the men, women, and children who experience them. The authors of this collection of essays show powerfully and poignantly war's realities and the toll taken on the human condition.''--Joseph L. Galloway, co-author of We Were Soldiers Once...and Young and We Are Soldiers Still
 
''An exhaustive interdisciplinary look at combat trauma, from revisionist readings of the ancients to contemporary mediums of graphic novels and tattoo artistry, from a mental health worker's exposition of the biology of brain trauma to critical reviews of war fiction from both Western soldiers and Iraqi civilian perspectives, The Many Faces of War is indispensable to anyone interested in the moral and psychological injuries that war fathers.''--Commander Michael Flynn, USN, United States Naval Academy
 
''This remarkable collection of essays assembles the most humane representation of the nature and immense tragedy of soldiering that I have ever read. The Many Faces of War crisscrosses centuries, geographies and disparate disciplines such as medicine, psychology, the arts and technology, while remaining true to the central narrative of the modern warriors who serve and suffer from our global capacity to destroy one another.''--Virginia Aksan, McMaster University, author of Ottoman Wars 1700-1870: An Empire Besieged
 
''Vivid contemporary personal stories, poetry and illustrations join discussions of the neuroscience of trauma. Scholarly essays on the psychological and social dimensions of combat in other historical periods bring readers a compelling conversation about the relation between the lived experience of armed conflict and enduring human nature. Each contributor brings something different to the exploration of the animating theme of the volume and together they form an absorbing read of value to scholars and general readers alike.''--S. Sara Monoson, Northwestern University, author of Plato's Democratic Entanglements: Athenian Politics and the Practice of Philosophy
 
''The Many Faces of War offers chapters on the ancient and contemporary worlds, and includes the vantage point of the participant, the civilian, the soldier, the scholar, and the observer. Creativity abounds, and so does an accompanying broad emotional range in which the writers engage the readers in painful first-person accounts that are poignant and heart-breaking. This book inclusively takes into account narratives that relate to gender, race, and culture. War offers little romance in this volume.''--John M. Belohlavek, University of South Florida, author of Patriots, Prostitutes, and Spies: Women and the Mexican-American War
