Anthony Feinstein

’n Onwillige Anthony Feinstein word ingedeel by die weermag se psigiatriese eenheid al het hy net weke se opleiding in dié veld. Hy behandel seuns wat met die hemelliggame praat of dink hulle is Jesus, troepe met post-traumatiese stressindroom, en vrouens van gewelddadige soldate. Sy openhartige verhaal sal enige leser ruk.

Anthony Feinstein was thrust into the army’s psychiatric unit with only a few weeks’ training in this field. This is his revealing account of treating soldiers – and their families – who suffered from all manner of war-induced psychoses. This honest account sheds light on the widespread but seldom talked about fall-out from the Border War.
