Customer Reviews:Average Customer Rating: An Essential Book for Mental Health Providers Working with Adults Who Have a History of Trauma As a clinical social worker and marriage and family therapist in private practice, I work with many individuals who have a history of trauma and/or have been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder. Dr. Bessel A. van der Kolk is one of the most experienced and respected professionals in this field. In this book he has edited a cross-section of articles that he considers the best in this field. Traumatic Stress The authors display an intimate knowledge of their subject. It is an invaluable contribution to the field of mental health. I highly recommend this book to all who have an interest in trauma stress studies. Brilliant Thanks so much, Very happy with the speed of posting and the condition of the book. Best Resource I work with persons suffering combat PTSD. I have found this to be, by far, the best book on treatment. The authors have a depth of understanding that goes far beyond those of most other authors. No simplistic solutions, here. Not a "just change the way you think about it" approach, and not a "just put on the goggles and re-experience it until it doesn't bother you anymore" approach ... not when the crucial events are such as seeing others' bodies torn apart by efficient weapons, or losing people one has come to love. Much wisdom in this book. Traumatic Stress: The Effects of Overwhelming Experience on Mind, Body, and Society Overall good book. The text can be a little technical at times but well written. | | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
