Title: A very necessary work for our time.
Review: As a veteran and a military trained trauma psychiatrist, the only word for this work is stunning. Not only does Ed Tick's War and the Soul cover a part of individual combat trauma therapy that is often ignored, that of the spiritual (not necessarily religious) journey needed for recovery, on a larger level it places war in the context of our society and forces us to think of the ethical choices we often avoid. When I have asked combat veterans what happened to their soul, many veterans respond by saying they feel like they've been carrying their soul around under their arm since they returned home. This book helps them have a reunion with the soul they have protected for so many years.
