About this title

Synopsis

Delayed Posttraumatic Stress Disorders from Infancy demonstrates the profound relationship between early infant trauma and the later development of serious emotional disorders. This model goes beyond prevalent thinking to show that biological research only measures the results of the disease process, and does not address the origins of mental illness. Primary prevention and treatment methods are identified based on recongition of the two-trauma mechanism.

Review

"This book breaks with traditional thinking from the first paragraph...offers an alternative to viewing, treating, managing, and preventing serious emotional disorders..." -Charles R. Figley of Director, Psychosocial Stress Research Program, Florida State University
