The Yom Kippur War of 1973 was not only one of the most difficult that Israel has ever waged but was a shifting point for the country's civil-military relations. This important volume analyzes these relations by tackling the key social actors that played a role in transforming the way politicians and leaders were appraised, in changing media representations of war and soldiering, in shaping how different social groups reacted to the conflict and in developing new forms of mourning and social memory of fallen soldiers. The book will be a very useful source for scholars and students wishing to understand the changes that contemporary Israel has undergone. -- Eyal Ben-Ari, Center for Society, Security, and Peace, Kinneret Academic College
