| Zusammenfassung: | Presents the story of civilians who have died as a result of America's recent wars, introducing some of those who died in Iraq and Afghanistan, the rescue workers who tried to save them, and the American soldiers coming to terms with their deaths "Since the beginning of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, uncounted thousands of civilians have died in the fighting, and as a result of the destruction. These are deaths for which no one assumes responsibility, and which have been presented, historically, as fallout. No one knows their true number. In [this book], Nick McDonell introduces us to some of the civilians who died, along with the rescue workers who tried to save them, U.S. soldiers grappling with their deaths, and everyone in between. He shows us how decent Americans, inside and outside the government and military, looked away from the mounting death toll, even as they claimed to do everything in their power to prevent civilian casualties. With a novelist's eye--and hundreds of hours of recorded interviews--McDonell brings us the untold story of the innocent dead in America's ongoing wars, from leveled cities to drone operation centers to Capitol back rooms. As we follow him around the world, The Bodies in Person raises questions not only about what it means to be an American, but about the value of a life, what it means to risk one, and what is owed afterward."--Dust jacket |

These are deaths for which no one assumes responsibility, and which have been presented, historically, as fallout. No one knows their true number. In [this book], Nick McDonell introduces us to some of the civilians who died, along with the rescue workers who tried to save them, U.S. soldiers grappling with their deaths, and everyone in between. He shows us how decent Americans, inside and outside the government and military, looked away from the mounting death toll, even as they claimed to do everything in their power to prevent civilian casualties. With a novelist's eye--and hundreds of hours of recorded interviews--McDonell brings us the untold story of the innocent dead in America's ongoing wars, from leveled cities to drone operation centers to Capitol back rooms. As we follow him around the world, The Bodies in Person raises questions not only about what it means to be an American, but about the value of a life, what it means to risk one, and what is owed afterward."--Dust jacket Kriegsopfer (DE-588)4165700-7 gnd rswk-swf Zivilbevölkerung (DE-588)4190984-7 gnd rswk-swf Golfkrieg 2003 (DE-588)4731075-3 gnd rswk-swf Afghanistankrieg 2001-2021 (DE-588)4997894-9 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf Afghan War (2001-) Iraq War (2003-2011) Iraq War, 2003-2011 / Casualties Civilian war casualties / Iraq Afghan War, 2001- / Casualties Civilian war casualties / Afghanistan Battle casualties / United States / History Battle casualties Civilian war casualties Afghanistan Iraq United States 2003-2011 History Nonfiction USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Afghanistankrieg 2001-2021 (DE-588)4997894-9 s Golfkrieg 2003 (DE-588)4731075-3 s Zivilbevölkerung (DE-588)4190984-7 s Kriegsopfer (DE-588)4165700-7 s DE-604 |
