Summary:

[This] book was written in response to [the] burgeoning of new information and the growing need for integrative analyses of posttraumatic disturbance and its measurement. It is intended as a practical, empirically grounded guide to the assessment of traumatic events and associated posttraumatic states. It addresses phenomena such as acute stress disorder (ASD), posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), stress-related psychotic states, various dissociative reactions and symptoms, and what has been referred to as complex PTSD. /// This volume is divided into 3 sections: etiology and phenomenology, general assessment issues, and specific assessment approaches.
