Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Reviews

This scholarly volume, with its excellent references and a useful index, is highly recommended as a well-written, state-of-the-art overview of PTSD.

The admirable book by [Drs.] Davidson and Foa provides a balanced and expert review of the aetiology, nature, course, and associations of PTSD.

This is a timely, well-written book which should be of broad interest to clinicians and researchers who have even a passing interest in PTSD.
