Rezensionen

"Through stories and interview reports, Harding and Kershner deftly outline the varied procedures of military recruiters who focus on the public schools as their point of access to young people. ... I am very pleased to see their research expanded significantly in this book, and ... this book will receive wide attention across fields such as sociology, social work, education, political science and communications." (Daniel Liechty, Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare, Vol. 43 (2), 2016)
