"Charissa J. Threat offers an original way to view the struggles of professional black women and white men in nursing…This book is more than a history of two groups struggling for acceptance in the cultures and politics of professional nursing and the military. Threat's discussion about the complexities surrounding the concept of equality allows the reader to consider larger societal issues about inclusion."--American Historical Review
