Review: "In the context of recent natural disasters, global terrorism and awareness of the impact of smaller scale disasters, there is a need for improved understanding of the needs of individuals and communities in the aftermath of traumatic events. At the same time, there is a need for the development of skills and support for those helping them. This revised and expanded edition of this highly successful book consolidates the core elements of good practice, while bringing theory and practice issues fully up-to-date." -- BOOK JACKET.
