Editorial Reviews

"The editors have assembled voices from psychology and psychiatry, research, and clinical practice. Superb editing ensures that the writing is nearly seamless, sounding as though it were written by a single author rather than by many expert contributors....Each chapter raises the level of discourse about traumatic stress in ways that are integrative rather than divisive....Friedman, Keane, and Resick provide a clear roadmap for the next 10 years of research and clinical innovation." (on the first edition)

Journal of Trauma & Dissociation

"Anyone looking for a sophisticated introduction to trauma and PTSD will find the Handbook of PTSD an excellent resource that will provide a solid review of scholarship and practice." (on the first edition)

Social Service Review

"A scholarly tour de force. The virtuosity lies in the convergence of three factors of any significant writing endeavor: aspiration, organization, and, most critically, execution....It is hard to imagine anyone working in the field of PTSD…who would not find this comprehensive collection of reviews grounding as well as inspirational." (on the first edition)

PsycCRITIQUES

"Highly organized, balanced, evidence based, and comprehensive....An essential resource for anyone who works as a clinician or researcher in the trauma field, and it is recommended for residency and graduate training programs....Irrespective of the reader's school of thought, discipline, or level of training, this book provides a multitude of ways to enrich and inspire a better understanding of this complex field." (on the first edition)

Description: An update to the 2007 first edition, this book addresses changes in the understanding of the diagnosis and treatment of patients with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Purpose: Given the vast research focused on PTSD over the past two decades and the subtle changes to the diagnostic criteria since the DSM-5 was published over a year ago, this book attempts to consolidate well-known information with newly discovered data about PTSD in one comprehensive resource.
Audience: Although written primarily for those whose interests lie in the diagnosis, treatment, or etiology of PTSD, it is also potentially useful for those pursuing various research avenues related to PTSD. Others curious about gaining a better scientific and practical understanding of PTSD could also benefit from this book.
Features: Our understanding of PTSD and its related conditions is an ever-evolving process. As more information surfaces about this complicated and challenging condition, attempts are made to adjust diagnostic considerations and treatment options for maximum efficacy. In four sections (Historical Overview, Scientific Perspectives, Clinical Practice, and Emerging Territory), the authors attempt to cover a significant amount of material while maintaining a book that is functionally practical. Chapters have extensive lists of current references, but fewer figures, tables, and other visual representations of concepts for pedagogic value. The author and subject index is helpful.
Assessment: This second edition offers a comprehensive view of PTSD, using a historical perspective in combination with the most recent relevant research to present updated concepts. Much of the material is complex and requires familiarity with scientific research, psychology, and psychiatry, yet the book proves to be a strong resource for improving readers' overall comprehension of virtually every aspect PTSD.

Doody's Review Service

"This is an extraordinary volume filled with nuanced and thoughtful discussions of recent advances in every facet of research on PTSD. The contributors are a veritable who’s who of leaders in basic and translational PTSD research. 'Must' reading for anyone interested in understanding the nosology, epidemiology, causes, consequences, or treatment of this important disorder."—Ronald C. Kessler, PhD, McNeil Family Professor of Health Care Policy, Harvard Medical School

"Handbook of PTSD, Second Edition, captures the state of the science of the field, cementing its place as the premier go-to reference. The volume starts from the foundations and includes comprehensive coverage of both science and practice. It is marked by its nuanced approach; contributors readily acknowledge controversies in the field and provide the reader with the evidence needed to inform reasoned discussion about open areas of debate. The book will be a tremendous asset to classes concerned with psychiatry, psychology, or the epidemiology of trauma and its consequences."—Sandro Galea, MD, DrPH, Gelman Professor and Chair, Department of Epidemiology, Mailman School of Public Health, Columbia University

"Unequaled in scope, this impressive work offers a thorough account of what is known about PTSD. The second edition reflects enormous recent strides in such areas as neurocognitive alterations associated with PTSD, the dissociative subtype, genetics, childhood traumatic stress, and various forms of treatment. This book should be required reading for all trauma-oriented researchers, clinicians, and graduate students."—Onno van der Hart, PhD, Department of Clinical and Health Psychology (Emeritus), Utrecht University, The Netherlands

"I teach a senior capstone course in Trauma Psychology. The Handbook of PTSD offers a comprehensive overview of the scientific and clinical knowledge underlying trauma psychology that is quite readable, yet thoroughly referenced. When we discussed cutting back on various readings to provide more time for a thesis, my students asked to retain most of the assigned Handbook readings because they found them so useful and interesting! The contributors are top experts who provide fair treatment of controversial theories and clinical topics fairly. This is the only book I have found that provides the breadth and depth needed for the primary text for an upper-level undergraduate course in Trauma Psychology, and it would also be excellent for a graduate course."—Robert Whitney, PhD, Adjunct Assistant Professor, Department of Psychology, Temple University

"Once again, the Handbook meets its lofty goal of advancing our understanding of PTSD. This volume fully updates the field and is a cornucopia of synthesis, integration, and review of the cradle-to-grave issues involving PTSD. Comprehensive and authoritative, it should be kept within arms' reach of clinicians, researchers, and educators, and is an excellent text for a graduate course on traumatic stress."—Stevan E. Hobfoll, PhD, Chair, Department of Behavioral Sciences, Rush University Medical Center

"The publication of this timely second edition responds to ongoing, extremely dynamic developments in the field. The book reflects the cutting edge of our scientific understanding of the neurobiology and psychology of trauma and its repercussions for humankind globally. Advances in telemental health technology are nicely covered, as are Internet-based interventions. I'll certainly keep recommending the Handbook as an essential reference for clinicians and researchers as well as a classroom text."—Ulrich Schnyder, MD, Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, University Hospital Zurich, Switzerland
