✦ Synopsis
Praise for When Johnny and Jane Come Marching Home; Title; Dedication; Contents; Note to the Reader; Acknowledgments; Prologue; Preface to the 2016 Paperback Edition; Chapter 1: When Johnny and Jane Come Marching Home: The Problem; Chapter 2: Being a Veteran; Chapter 3: There's Only So Much Emotional Carnage of War That Therapists Can Fix; Chapter 4: The Wrong Responses Begin: What the Military Is Doing While Johnny and Jane Are Over There ... and Why It's Not Enough; Chapter 5: What the VA Is Doing Once Johnny and Jane Are Home ... and Why It's Not Enough.;Why are those devastated by war or other military experiences called mentally ill' The standard treatment of therapy and drugs can actually be harmful, and huge numbers of suffering veterans from earlier eras demonstrate its inadequacy. Most of us are both war-illiterate and military-illiterate. Caplan proposes that we welcome veterans back into our communities and listen to their experiences, one-on-one. Beginning a long overdue national discussion about the realities of war and the military will help us bridge the dangerous chasms between veterans and nonveterans.
