Reviews

"It can be recommended to any doctors who might come into contact with the victims of disaster - that includes almost all of us.It ... should be obligatory reading for accident and emergency specialists."

Professor A C P Sims in the British Medical Journal

"This most illuminating book ... is an interesting and enlightening read for anyone involved in stress management.It should be of great use to the helping professions in terms of disaster management, as well as a training manual or guide ... I think it will help many who have experienced their own personal catastrophes."

Professor Cary Cooper in the Times Higher Educational Supplement

"This text ... is a clear and poignant amalgamation of hard won personal experience informed by scholarly reviews of relevant literature."

Professor William Yule in Behaviour Research & Therapy

"It is undoubtedly the best available handbook to equip counsellors to prepare to counsel people after a major trauma."

British Association of Counselling Journal

"The authors have created a book with great use for mental health professionals."

Contemporary Psychology

"This is a well written and carefully researched book ... the counselling process is treated with great sensitivity and insight."

Social Work Today

"The authors write from a position of considerable experience ... this shows through at many points in this book, and brings a depth to the discussion which is missing from the writings of those whose expertise is based merely upon a fleeting association with one particular disaster."

Douglas Duckworth in Health Services Management Research

"I would strongly recommend this publication to individuals who wish to extend their knowledge and improve their practice in this important area. The authors have made a very valuable contribution."
