The book is a great example of how we learn best through personal stories. The descriptions of the thirty-seven women featured in Tears of War emphasize the importance of never going to war and demonstrate the great strength and resilience of these women.
The consequences of war, including displacement, horrific loss of life, devastation of the environment, PTSD, and the impact on climate change, should provoke us to serious thought, discussion, and action to never initiate war.
