As always Joseph & Regel stretch beyond the DSM and psychiatric categorising to the psychosocial and physical health related complexity of trauma. They provide the window that we all look through but often feel unable to tread in the age of jargonese around evidence-based. Life is full of potentially traumatic events and we often need the support and clear headed common sense that this little pocket book provides. Every trauma practitioner should have a copy. * Lynne McCormack *
