'Helping Children Cope with Trauma reflects the breadth of knowledge, experience, and commitment of the editors and authors. It is an important and interesting volume with the emphasis on theory, research, and interventions from many cross-cultural perspectives. The emphasis on ways to build individual, family, and community resilience is particularly important in that for children coping with trauma, learning more about strengths that aid recovery is crucial. Given the range of perspectives and approaches covered in this excellent volume and its international scope, I recommend that this book be required reading for all who work with traumatized children and families.' - Joy D. Osofsky, Ph.D.
