Ahhh, finally, one of those books you literally can't put down until you've finished reading the entire tale.

Author: Al Philipson
Just what I like. Lots of action and a plot that keeps me riveted. The aliens are well handled, not the usual reptile stereotypes and the main character has the usual problems many people might face when launched into combat.
Davis hit another home run.

Author: John Bowers
Combine a naval officer, a trauma surgeon, a science fiction author, and what do you get? Bruce Davis, who writes convincingly of combat, tactics, injuries, and recovery.
That Which Is Human is much more than a war story; it’s a tale of desperate sacrifice in the face of impossible odds…an enemy who seeks your extinction. When Lt. Mac McAllister tries to balance a personal life with a military emergency, something has got to give. His wife’s career surrounds her with anti-war pacifists, and she just doesn’t see the urgency in Mac’s work. When reality finally dawns on her, everyone she loves is threatened, and she turns to Mac to save them.
But is it too late?
That Which Is Human is powerfully relevant to current events. A must read for everyone.

That Which is Human is more than just a great Sci-Fi book, it’s a great book full stop!
Although this story is set in the future and in outer space, it is not the main focus of the book. The reader could just as easily believe that the events are taking place on board an aircraft carrier serving in the Gulf today. The gritty and realistic terminology used by the author helps to pull the reader into the day to day life on Mac’s ship. The battles and the communications during these scenes are particularly good. The reader has an almost voyeuristic view of the battles as they unfold. This type of detailed writing brings to mind the footage from Desert Storm. I could picture every maneuver, as if I were watching the grainy footage from the battle front itself. It is this realism that makes this tale such an enjoyable and exciting read. However, this book has far more to say about how a man deals with sacrifice, loss, duty and addiction than it does about blowing up aliens. I am sure there are many men, and women serving today, who struggle with the same issues as Mac.
Bruce Davis has won himself a new fan with this book. If you’re a Sci-Fi fan, or not, you need to read, That Which is Human.
