Reviews:

• Brief Treatments for the Traumatized can be best viewed as an inital foray into expicating the ways that traumatized persons may be helped by conventional and nonconventional approaches to ameliorating the adverse effects of abuse, trauma, and violence. Its heuristic value rests in what it will spawn in the future.
