Natural disasters. Hostage situations. Terror attacks. During these and other emergency situations, first responders make split-second judgments: evaluating risks, identifying dangerous conditions, and—often the hardest job of all—attending to those distressed and disturbed by their ordeal. First Responder's Guide to Abnormal Psychology gives readers critical insights into the human impact of extreme trauma, and the various levels of mental impairment suffered by both victims and survivors. Renowned trauma experts William Dorfman and Lenore Walker give this book immediate relevance through the use of real-life examples from a wide range of crisis situations. They have also deliberately minimized research citations within the text for greater readability.Highlights of the coverage:Comprehensive review of the major forms of mental illness and how to recognize them The latest theories of stress, trauma, resilience, and copingOverview of key mental health issues in the law, from competence to the insanity defenseSpecial chapter on emotional and psychological disorders in children and adolescentsIntroduces the concept of therapeutic justice—an innovative problem-solving court for people with mental illness Intervention strategies for putting psychological knowledge into action A practice-enhancing seminar in book form, First Responder's Guide to Abnormal Psychology is an essential resource for professionals in the emergency, security, and rescue services, as well as a valuable text for those training to enter these demanding careers. It confirms gut feelings, clarifies judgment calls, and puts into sharp focus the human stories behind critical incidents. - E-bokPDF, Engelska, 2007

Cuando "Amar bajo el Terror" llegó a nuestras manos, hace aproximadamente un año, en seguida comprendimos que era un libro que teníamos que publicar. Y utilizo "comprender" en lugar de "decidir" con pleno convencimiento. Supongo que se nos podría aplicar la popular frase de "eso se lo dirás a todas", pero en este caso se juntaban varias circunstancias que lo hacían verdaderamente especial.Por un lado, el problema de la violencia de género sigue siendo una importante lacra social en nuestro país. No sé si alguien me lo podría rebatir con estadísticas en la mano, pero la sensación que tenemos es la de que en un país, en el que en los últimos años hemos logrado reducir la siniestralidad por tráfico hasta una tercera parte de su volumen, no hay forma de bajar significativamente las cifras de mujeres que cada año fallecen o son gravemente heridas a manos de sus compañeros. Y no creo que sea una comparación superficial porque, en ambos casos, con matices, claro, depende fundamentalmente de una combinación entre mentalización cívica y temor a una posible sanción realmente dura.Por otra parte, es habitual escuchar comentarios, no ya de cualquier idiota al que le funciona la lengua, o el dedo en el teclado, más rápido que el cerebro, sino lo que es peor, en la calle, en los comentarios de noticias de la prensa electrónica, en personas poco sospechosas de dificultad de razonar, incluso de "progres" y gente de izquierdas, que minimizan la gravedad del problema cuando no revierten el mismo en acusaciones hacia las mujeres por "utilizar" en sus conflictos de pareja unas leyes "demasiado protectoras" para ellas y sus intereses."Amar bajo el terror", ha sido publicado en EEUU y ahora llega por primera vez a España en una versión íntegra del original, que nos sorprenderá en su realismo y crudeza.
