Review of the hardback: 'The book covers a very important topic in psychiatry, which is dealing with people suffering from disasters and how the psychiatric services can help in such events. The quality of the coverage if very scientific and well written.

The book is an excellent buy.' Saudi Medical Journal
Review of the hardback: 'This is a timely and welcome first textbook on disaster psychiatry. Timely, because the 1980 introduction of the diagnosis of post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in DSM-III ... focused attention on the effect of disasters on vulnerable individuals rather than populations. Welcome, because in the excellent and diverse choice of contributors the editors have firmly established that significant advances in our understanding and treatment of post traumatic stress disorders will require the engagement of a much wider ranger of health care professionals, and allied disciplines, than in recent years. ... The Textbook of Disaster Psychiatry offers a 'not to be missed' current state-of -the-art review of this important area of research. It also raises the hope that as well as treating the vulnerable few, we should be able to develop psychological interventions that strengthen the mental resilience of many.' Journal of Psychosomatic Research
