- Summary
- "Here is a levelheaded look at the American Military and its effect on society. In a lively, non-theoretical way, Soldiers, Scholars, and Society analyzes such issues as the draft, black soldiers, returning veterans, the National Guard, the service academies, ROTC, campus 'war research', and Congress and the Military-Industrial Complex. Dr. Glick steers a middle ground between a military that is uncriticized and uncontrolled and one that is hobbled and prematurely destroyed. Soldiers, Scholars, and Society answers the public's call for more discussion of policies and issues instead of theories and methods. In addition, it contains an excellent collection of references, tables, charts, and illustrations."--Back cover
