Read anything by Dave Grossman?
I happened upon two books by Lt. Col. Dave Grossman, a West Point Psychology professor and former Ranger, while browsing Amazon: 1) On Combat, The Psychology and Physiology of Deadly Conflict in War and in Peace 2) On Killing: The Psychological Cost of Learning to Kill in War and Society. Has anyone on here read these?
One Amazon reviewer for the first book wrote: "If you are a soldier, a police officer, [or] a martial artist...you really ought to read this book." Well, I am a former soldier from a police family who is a martial artist. Needless to say, these books are very appealing to me. I would just like to know past reader's impressions of Grossman's work before I buy.
