Recenzii
From the book reviews:
“This is an extraordinary book for clinicians, support staff, and caregivers of those who have experienced physical trauma and the subsequent sequelae of that trauma. … This is one of the top treatises currently available on the psychosocial aspects of trauma care, in both the acute and the chronic stages. … an absolutely vital book for all who treat trauma cases, from residents, attendings, and nursing staff to support staff and lay caregivers, to understand the nonphysical aspects of care.” (Vincent F. Carr, Doody’s Book Reviews, April, 2015)
