[1] APA PsycNET: Placing the Vietnam War and its veterans within a sociohistorical perspective, the 18 expert contributors examine the sociological significance of the war and contrast the experience of Vietnam veterans with that of veterans of previous wars.

Contributors then investigate the veteran's transition to civilian life from psychosocial, economic, political, and ideological perspectives, including the relationship between military service and subsequent labor experiences and the politicization of those who served.

An analysis of governmental and institutional responses to the returning veterans constitutes the last section, which first places the social movement of military veterans in historic perspective by detailing our nation's less-than-appreciative treatment of Revolutionary War veterans and compares this to contemporary treatment of Vietnam veterans as "losers."

[2] Contemporary Sociology noted that the book “…there emerges a quality of readability and style that is usually far beyond the reach of such collections of readings. It is this quality that bring to fruition all the underlying sympathy for Vietnam veterans that makes Strangers at Home an important contribution to social science and to public policy debate (Contemporary Sociology, January 1982, Volume 11, Number 1, pp 80-82).”
