«Military Spouses with Graduate Degrees: Interdisciplinary Approaches to Thriving Amidst Uncertainty is an excellent resource for anyone conducting research about military families, but certainly for those who are in the military and the people who are helping them. The collection reflects a range of topics and approaches, the contributors come from several disciplines, and they each make an important contribution to understanding the complexities of military life. I highly recommend the entire book.»
