About this title

Those who struggle to cope with the direct effects of trauma will find this text an informative guide to better understanding themselves and their experience. Partners and family members of traumatized individuals can gain increased understanding of, and empathy for, their loved ones in addition to learning how to be more sensitive. Mental health professionals who work with people with a history of trauma should find the book to be a useful digest of current knowledge that they can share with their patients.

Review

"Unlike most books meant for lay readers, this volume gives a large number of references to back up the statement made, and this is done unobtrusively. This enables the interested readers, especially professional readers (who will find this book most useful to read) to follow up the relevant references. Overall, this is an excellent book. The expertise of the author is coupled with his unusual skill in writing in simple, readable style. It is also a well-organized book."- "Behavorial Research Therapy"
