"Contemporary Directions in Trauma is a new text for courses on trauma and working with vulnerable populations. What began as focusing on childhood trauma, sexual abuse and PTSD, has now broadened much further to include other definitions such as terrorism, natural disasters, school shootings and more. This book unifies the various approaches for assessing trauma in one volume"--Provided by publisher.
