Great practical and scholarly guide to working in trauma

This book represents an exhaustive review of various cognitive-behavioral approaches to the treatment of trauma. It is scholarly and founded on strong scientific research without being pedantic or preachy. Amost every chapter has real-life clinical examples with actual narrative transcripts which can be quite compelling. I especially like the chapters on treating dysfunctional guilt and on dissociation, areas seldom discussed in traditional behavioral circles. All in all, I think this is a great addition to the library of any clinician dealing with emotional trauma.
