Widely regarded as the definitive reference, this handbook brings together foremost authorities on post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Diagnostic and conceptual issues are reviewed in depth. The volume examines the causes and mechanisms of PTSD on multiple levels, from psychological processes to genes and neurobiology. Risk and resilience processes are addressed across development and in specific populations.
"Handbook of PTSD, Second Edition, captures the state of the science of the field, cementing its place as the premier go-to reference. The volume starts from the foundations and includes comprehensive coverage of both science and practice. It is marked by its nuanced approach; contributors readily knowledge controversies in the field and provide the reader with the evidence needed to inform reasoned discussion about open areas of debate. The book will be a tremendous asset to classes concerned with psychiatry, psychology, or the epidemiology of trauma and its consequences."--Sandro Galea, MD, DrPH, Gelman Professor and Chair, Department of Epidemiology, Mailman School of Public Health, Columbia University "This is an extraordinary volume filled with nuanced and thoughtful discussions of recent advances in every facet of research on PTSD. The contributors are a veritable who's who of leaders in basic and translational PTSD research. 'Must' reading for anyone interested in understanding the nosology, epidemiology, causes, consequences, or treatment of this important disorder."--Ronald C. Kessler, PhD, McNeil Family Professor of Health Care Policy, Harvard Medical School "Unequaled in scope, this impressive work offers a thorough account of what is known about PTSD. The second edition reflects enormous recent strides in such areas as neurocognitive alterations associated with PTSD, the dissociative subtype, genetics, childhood traumatic stress, and various forms of treatment. This book should be required reading for all trauma-oriented researchers, clinicians, and graduate students."--Onno van der Hart, PhD, Emeritus Professor of Psychopathology of Chronic Traumatization, Utrecht University, The Netherlands"Once again, the Handbook meets its lofty goal of advancing our understanding of PTSD. This volume fully updates the field and is a cornucopia of synthesis, integration, and review of the cradle-to-grave issues involving PTSD. Comprehensive and authoritative, it should be kept within arms' reach of clinicians, researchers, and educators, and is an excellent text for a graduate course on traumatic stress." --Stevan E. Hobfoll, PhD, Chair, Department of Behavioral Sciences, Rush University Medical Center
