While women have a relatively short history in the American military, the last century shows an evolution of women's direct participation in war. The primary focus is on the American case, but Emerald Archer also introduces a comparative element, showing how women's integration in the military differs in other countries, including Great Britain and Israel. Adopting an interdisciplinary approach, the book draws on military history, theory and social psychology to offer a more complete and integrated history of women in the military and their representation in society. 651 0 $a United States $x History $x Women $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Women and war $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Sex role $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 830 0 $a War, culture and society. 941 $a 2 952 $l GAAX314 $d 20180512010034.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20171107013927.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EA471668939111E7A673E95E97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
