Posttraumatic stress disorderscientific and professional dimensions /[electronic resource] :Julian D. Ford. - 1st ed. - Amsterdam ;Elsevier/Academic Press,2009. - xii, 441 p. :ill. ;23 cm.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 383-423) and index.

Understanding psychological trauma and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) -- The impact of psychological trauma -- Etiology of traumatic stress disorders -- Epidemiology of psychological trauma and traumatic stress disorders -- Neurobiology of traumatic stress disorders and their impact -- Assessment of psychological trauma and traumatic stress disorders -- Treatment of adults with traumatic stress disorders -- Treatment of children and adolescents with traumatic stress diseases -- Prevention of traumatic stress disorders -- Forensic issues in the traumatic stress field -- Social, cultural and ethical issues in the traumatic stress field -- Careers and ethical issues in the traumatic stress field.

This authored text-reference will be the first comprehensive text in the rapidly growing field of psychological trauma and posttraumatic stress disorder. According to the NIMH, approximately 5.2 million American adults already suffer from post traumatic stress disorder. Caused by everything from combat experience to violent personal assaults to natural disasters and accidents, the incidence of PTSD has already reached epidemic proportions. The profound impact of psychological trauma and the need for proactive and scientifically-based approaches to timely prevention and evidence based treatment is unarguable and mental health programs are seeing a significant rise in the number of PTSD courses offered and services required. As a result, scholars, researchers, educators, clinicians, and trainees in the health care and human and social services need a concise and comprehensive source of authoritative information on psychological trauma and posttraumatic stress. This volume will offer a foundational understanding of the field as well cover key controversies, the influence of culture and gender, and describe state-of-the-art research and clinical methodologies in down-to-earth terms.
