The victims of US military campaigns are usually nameless civilians in far away places, but there are also victims closer to home - the soldiers so often used and then discarded by the establishment. Binding Their Wounds is a book about US veterans written by a US veteran - Bob 'Doc' Topmiller. Topmiller fought in Vietnam, founded a school for orphans there, and become a professor of history before he tragically committed suicide. Close friend and scholar Kerby Neill stepped in to complete the book. The result is a history of US veterans and their treatment by the US establishment from the early republic to the recent wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Binding Their Wounds offers policy recommendations to improve post-conflict treatment and care for veterans which are long overdue.

Nothing destroys trust like sexual betrayal. Beyond broken vows, a woman who discovers that the man she loves has been viewing pornography or having an affair must deal with devastating blows to her self-image and self-worth. She must grapple with the fact that the man she thought she knew has lied and deceived her. She may even bear the brunt of shame and judgment when the people around her find out. Drawing from her experience both as a marriage and family therapist and a woman who personally experienced the devastation of sexual betrayal, Dr. Sheri Keffer walks women impacted by betrayal through the pain and toward recovery. She explains how the trauma of betrayal affects our minds, bodies, spirits, and sexuality. She offers practical tools for dealing with emotional triggers and helps women understand the realities of sexual addiction. And she shows women how to practice self-care, develop healthy boundaries, protect themselves from abuse or manipulation, and find freedom from the burden of shame and guilt.

We cannot escape life's wounds. They come with the normal wear and tear of human existence. In this engaging and eye-opening book, you will discover how you have been impacted by early experiences with primary caregivers who provided either "Too Much, Too Little," or "Just Right" emotionally. "Transforming Wounds into Wisdom: Change Your Attitudes and Save Your Life" makes it clear, however, that whatever unhealed emotional injuries you sustained as a result of hurtful childhood experiences are not life sentences-they are opportunities for ongoing personal growth. More specifically, Jolyn Davidson shows you the way to heal those old emotional wounds and to change the self-defeating attitudes that have arisen from them. She offers valuable and useful tools that will help you free yourself from the tenacious ties that have been binding you to your painful past. The empowering resources she provides will make it possible for you to generate new attitudes, which will then lead to deeper, more satisfying relationships with your family, friends, and yourself. Ultimately, this profound book is about "Hope-Healing-Wholeness." It is a road map that will arm you with not only greater understanding but also an enhanced ability to transform your emotional wounds into wisdom both by dismantling old attitudes and by fashioning new ones. And the wisdom, strength, and capacity to care for your needs in healthy ways that you have acquired on your heroic journey will make it possible for you to create a more meaningful and richer life.

In The Scar That Binds, Keith Beattie examines the central metaphors of the Vietnam War and their manifestations in American culture and life. Blending history and cultural criticism in a lucid style, this provocative book discusses an ideology of unity that has emerged through widespread rhetorical and cultural references to the war. A critique of this ideology reveals three dominant themes structured in a range of texts: the "wound," "the voice" of the Vietnam veteran, and "home." The analysis of each theme draws on a range of sources, including film, memoir, poetry, written and oral history, journalism, and political speeches.
