Reviews
The editors have chosen a comprehensive biopsychosocial model that integrates and continues to guide future work on PTSD. ... It would be an excellent handbook for experienced psychologists to review general data and to explore more recent research and clinical applications. In a very organized, clear fashion, the editors have compiled a book that would be of value to researchers, clinicians, students, policy makers, and public health professionals. (Dolores McCarthy, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 60 (48), November, 2015)
