Women in the Military

by James Haley

Book Overview

Close to 90 percent of military jobs are now open to the nearly 200,000 women-16 percent of total U.S. military personnel-who currently serve in the armed forces. Women are still forbidden from serving in direct combat units. Whether this last remaining barrier to women's military service should be removed is one of several issues debated and discussed in this anthology.
