Book Military Medicine and the Hidden Costs of War

Download or read book Military Medicine and the Hidden Costs of War written by Professor of Political Science Tanisha M Fazal and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2024-03-29 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Military Medicine and the Hidden Costs of War, the distinguished political scientist Tanisha M. Fazal covers the full range of American wars from the Civil War to War on Terror. A rich and engrossing account of the advances in military medicine, the book shows that over time there has been a steep increase in the wounded-to-killed ratio. That has had a major impact on the actual costs of US wars--as more soldiers survive, health care costs dramatically rise, making the costs of war much greater than politicians say they are. Yet the public is unaware of these long-term costs, which contributes to America's penchant for engaging in so-called "endless wars." All told, this is both a powerful history of American wars through the lens of injury and medicine and also a necessary corrective for how we understand the costs of war.

Book United States Army Depot Brigades in World War I

Download or read book United States Army Depot Brigades in World War I written by Alexander F. Barnes and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2021-12-13 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much has been written about the exploits of the American Expeditionary Forces, the men and women sent overseas to fight during World War I, but much less is known about the two million who served in the Army without ever setting foot on foreign soil. This book examines the history of depot brigades, development battalions, U.S. Guards units, Students' Army Training Corps, and other "forgotten" troops charged with training soldiers, guarding installations, and performing myriad other duties. It also chronicles the service of men like actor Jimmy Cagney, author F. Scott Fitzgerald, movie director Frank Capra, children's author Ludwig Bemelmans, and the two million others who served in the United States during the war. At the time, many of these men considered themselves unfortunate cast-offs, doomed to spend the war safe at home while their friends served in combat overseas. But, in the end, it was largely because of them that America could field an effective fighting force.

Book No Magic Bullet

    Book Details:
  • Author : Allan M. Brandt
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press, USA
  • Release : 2020-07-13
  • ISBN : 0190863420
  • Pages : 345 pages

Download or read book No Magic Bullet written by Allan M. Brandt and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020-07-13 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Victorian anxieties about syphilis to the current hysteria over herpes and AIDS, the history of venereal disease in America forces us to examine social attitudes as well as purely medical concerns. In No Magic Bullet, Allan M. Brandt recounts the various medical, military, and public health responses that have arisen over the years--a broad spectrum that ranges from the incarceration of prostitutes during World War I to the establishment of required premarital blood tests. Brandt demonstrates that Americans' concerns about venereal disease have centered around a set of social and cultural values related to sexuality, gender, ethnicity, and class. At the heart of our efforts to combat these infections, he argues, has been the tendency to view venereal disease as both a punishment for sexual misconduct and an index of social decay. This tension between medical and moral approaches has significantly impeded efforts to develop "magic bullets"--drugs that would rid us of the disease--as well as effective policies for controlling the infections' spread. In this 35th anniversary edition of No Magic Bullet, Brandt reflects on recent scholarship, the persistence of sexually transmitted diseases, and the trajectory of the HIV epidemic, as they have informed contemporary conceptions of biomedicine and global health.

Book excerpt: In addition to planning and pre-disaster exercises essential for allocating resources and devising effective mental health interventions, this book also includes two CDs showing an international panel of experts discussing how best to plan for a bioterrorist event. Although only twelve people died after the sarin gas attack on the Tokyo subway system in 1995, more than five thousand sought medical care for the effects of possible exposure. Bioterrorism can create chaos and disruption on a national and international scale. Moreover, it is believed to incur the most devastating psychological sequelae of all disasters.
