Book Description
The problem of battle stress has become a major factor in the question of military effectiveness. Current estimates suggest that modern armies are likely to lose between forty and fifty percent of their total strength as a result of psychiatric collapse. The first work of its kind ever published in the field of comparative military psychiatry, this book draws together a cross-cultural analysis of the discipline as practiced by the armies of the United States, Germany, Israel, and the Soviet Union.

Russian/Soviet Military Psychiatry 1904-1945
Author: Paul Wanke
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134325754
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
Psychiatry, like most professional fields in Russia, gained its legitimacy from its ability to serve the Tsar and later the Bolshevik party. The militarised nature of these governments meant that psychiatry would have to prove its worth to the military. This study will cover Russian/Soviet military psychiatry from its first practical experience during the Russo-Japanese war to its greatest test during the Great Patriotic War 1941-45. Throughout this study, the continuity between Russian and Soviet military psychiatry will be emphasised. For example, psychiatry's materialist school dominated throughout this period and that Russia's acceptance that psychiatric casualties will occur allowed them to focus their resources on treatment rather than prevention.

The Painful Field
Author: Richard A. Gabriel
Publisher: Praeger
ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
Colored by the popular and official mythologies of heroism, the accepted view of mental collapse during combat is that it is a fairly rare occurrence that can be attributed to psychological weakness or simple cowardice. With the advent of each new generation of weapons, however, this view becomes less tenable. The increasingly lethal battlefields of conventional warfare have sharply escalated the numbers of psychiatric casualties, which reached staggering proportions worldwide by the early 1980s. Professor Gabriel, a leading authority on military psychiatry, provides the first systematic examination of the problem, its history and current dimension, the systems developed by the superpowers to counter it, and the far-reaching implications of our continued acceptance of warfare under radically altered conditions.
