About This Item
New York: George Braziller, 2006. Softcover. New. Back during our days as a business executive, we knew a compassionate lobbyist (yes, they do exist - just not many) who shared that he was finding it increasingly difficult to attend his nightly dinner events. He reported that meeting and spending time with so many returning Iraqi veterans who had lost limbs was heart-rending and becoming difficult for him to process. Wounded is a book that takes on these tragic issues of our times; it is a critical analysis of those wounded in combat, from initial injury through rehabilitation. Dr. Glasser served as an Army hospital physician during Vietnam, and he has written several well-received books during the intervening years and conflicts, including the New York Times Bestseller and critically lauded 365 Days. See photos for Gen. Hal Moore's and David Mamet's assessment of this compelling work.

Wounded is a critical analysis of those wounded in combat, from initial injury through rehabilitation. Dr. Glasser served as an Army hospital physician during Vietnam, and he has written several well-received books during the intervening years and conflicts, including the New York Times Bestseller and critically lauded 365 Days. Gen. Hal Moore, co-author of We Were Soldiers Once...and Young, said of Wounded: "...a truly great book which America needs now" and David Mamet said of Glasser, "All his books are written out of love....here in Wounded, also by rage, which is to say by the absolute refusal to accept that suffering and waste which is avoidable."
