ISBN: 9780880488167 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the 1980's, the psychiatric community first officially recognized posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) as a diagnosis to describe the disorder that can occur following exposure to extremely traumatic events.

Recently, it has been hypothesized that the development of chronic PTSD results from a combination of factors, only some of which are related to exposure to trauma. Risk...

This work seeks to remove the artificial division separating the mentally ill from the general public and demystify symtoms that often seem bizarre. Case studies are referred to so that readers can see what each therapist confronts...
