Rezensionen

"This work will serve as a clear, useful reference for those in the field of traumatic stress studies. Comprehensive subject/author index. Summing Up: Highly recommended." ( Choice Reviews , May 2009)
"In simple, nontechnical language, this resource outlines the nature and description of psychological trauma, its impact and sociopolitical effects, its prevention and treatment, current research, professional organizations, and government policies. Each entry ranges from three to five pages and contains a useful list of references to journal articles, books, or web sites. The volume allows systematic access to topics through its alphabetic arrangement and an excellent subject and author index. This single-volume work, therefore, fills an important research gap and will prove valuable to students, clinicians, educators, policy makers, and other interested persons. Highly recommended." ( Library Journal , February 15, 2009)
