Review
"This latest edition of Lee Ann Hoff′s text provides a broad and thought provoking framework from which practitioners can reflect upon their work and develop interdisciplinary services that are creative and flexible in meeting the needs of survivors. People in Crisis makes an essential contribution to this field." —Philippa Sully, course leader, Society, Violence, and Practice, City University, London, UK
"In People in Crisis every crisis worker–regardless of discipline–will find a treasury of practical guidelines that are comprehensive, well organized, illustrated by appropriate examples, and thoroughly referenced. Lee Ann Hoff covers the spectrum of crisis experience–individual, couples, group, and community, never losing sight of the uniqueness of each clinical situation and its cultural context." —Jerome A. Motto, professor of psychiatry, emeritus, University of California, San Francisco, School of Medicine
"This book has it all. Grounded in theory and framed within a broad cultural context aimed at contemporary interdisciplinary practice, People in Crisis offers invaluable guidelines for assessment and response. Should you find yourself faced with persons in crisis, you can wrap this wondrously woven tapestry around you for comfort during the caring process." —Lisa Love, APRN, CS, Spring Harbor Counseling, Portland, Maine
"Drawing from public health, social, cultural, and political perspectives and ′thinking upstream,′ Lee Ann Hoff considers the roots of crisis and identifies key issues facing frontline workers. Case studies and sample interviews make the material come alive and be meaningful. She makes a strong case for the role of primary care workers in identifying and responding to distressed people in hospitals, clinics, and schools where they first seek help." —Eleanor Harder, program manager, Community Mental Health Clinic, Guelph, Ontario, Canada

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to BooksRun, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
