The Psychological Impact of War Trauma on Civilians : An International Perspective

Rating:
Summary: A Remarkable Book
Review: Each chapter of this remarkable book is different, yet each describes the heroic efforts being made to alleviate human suffering due to the ravages of ethnic, religious, or political warfare. The chapter authors represent five continents, and they describe the attempts being made to treat the victims (primarily women and children) of war trauma. Especially poignant are the Angolan children's drawings that open each section of this book, and depict a "child's view" of death and destruction.

Summary: Incredible Book
Review: Krippner and McIntyre have taken the time to look at the pschological aspects of war and violence on civilians. This is a very well researched book with a number of outstanding contributors. A must book for those interested in not only the short term but long term effects of war on humans.
