Reviews

'The presence of Christian chaplains on the battlefield focuses in a very sharp way the wider tension between a gospel of peace and the need for armed force in a brutal world. I welcome this book as a much needed and valuable contribution from those with first-hand experience of the role and the willingness to think theologically about that tension and the dilemmas it poses.' Professor The Rt Revd Lord Richard Harries '... well-researched and written and [...] an important contribution to the debate which should be taking place.' The Pastoral Review
