Inhaltsangabe

The book features chapters from 15 contributors who tell stories about their psychology leadership careers in the Veterans Administration/Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The stories collectively span the entire 60 year history of VA psychology starting in 1946, and include descriptions of experiences as a trainee in the first decade of the VA training program and roles as an early VA chief of psychology. The chapters also contain stories about special research projects, treatment programs, and advocacy efforts as these leaders worked to serve veterans. Contributors describe both the struggles in their careers as well as the rewards of helping veterans and working with colleagues they admired and respected. An Appendix with photos of early VA Central Office leaders completes the book.
