First published in 2005. This volume documents women's 20th century wartime experiences from World War I through the recent conflicts in Bosnia. The articles cross national boundaries including France, China, Peru, Guatemala, Germany, Bosnia, the U.S. and Great Britain.. The contributors of these original essays trace the evolution of women's roles as victims of war while also showing how they have been increasingly incorporated into battle as actors and perpetrators. These comparative studies analyze war's disruptions of daily life, its effects on children, rape as a war crime, access to equal opportunity, and women's resistance to violence.

Nicole Ann Dombrowski received her Ph.D. in modern European history from New York University in 1995. She is currently finishing a book Families Under Fire: French Civilians and the German Invasion of France, 1940–1942 which analyzes the French state s provisions for civilian security during World War II.
