Reviews
Strengthening the Canadian Armed Forces through Diversity and Inclusion is a welcome and timely addition to the research on the CAF. The book treats several different kinds of diversity from both historical and contemporary standpoints and examines what possible challenges expanded diversity could bring to the Forces. - Andrea Lane, Department of Political Science, Dalhousie University The question of diversity in the armed forces is an important one. There is a need to know how militaries cope with the challenges, recognize the issues, and then transform their institutions. This book offers many fresh perspectives and reveals how Canada has become a leader in navigating the demographic and cultural trends that all Western nations face, including how the military, composed of citizen soldiers, should reflect the dynamic citizenship of the country. - Patricia M. Shields, Department of Political Science, Texas State University
