Rethinking the Trauma of War by Patrick J. Bracken Book PDF Summary

This text examines the emerging concerns about the export of trauma experts and counsellors to war-torn areas of the world.

Based on their own experience of working internationally, this book presents an analysis of present, misconceived attempts to give help, but also an agenda for future, more appropriate ways of responding to those affected by wars and conflicts.
