Books On Killing: The Psychological Cost of Learning to Kill in War and Society

Rating: - On killing review
It is interesting book for those who have illusions concerning any war. The book confirmed the basic thought that the fright to kill a person is more important than the fright to be killed. The nature programmed us to avoid killing a human being! Every war does not cost every life! Certainly, there is CONSCIENCE! The conscience torment to kill innocent children and women, fathers of mothers of somebody!

Rating: - Great read
This is a very incite-full read and should be read before on combat. Very deep subject content and makes very good points about how our society is changing and not in a good way.

Rating: - Excellent - Required Reading
This book should be required reading for all Company Commanders, and a copy should be given to every soldier who serves in combat, whether or not they kill another.

This book, if widely distributed in our armed forces, would be instrumental to reducing the social stigma associated with PTSD and provide the soldiers in the field and their officers and NCO's a critical tool for assessing and triage for combat related mental illness.

Rating: - A Quality Look At A Grisly Topic
This is a good look at what it takes to kill another human, and what it means, psychologically, to the one doing the killing. This is worth reading. Some of the content will surprise you.
