Motor vehicle accidents (MVAs) have been found to be the single leading cause of posttraumatic stress disorder in the general population. They are the most frequent, directly experienced trauma for men and the second most frequent trauma for women. Since the 1997 edition of After the Crash, there has been a monumental new wave of research in the assessment and treatment of MVA survivors.
In this timely second edition, written in a clear and lucid style and illustrated by a wealth of charts, guides, case studies, and clinical advice, the authors report on new, international research and provide updates on their own longstanding research protocols within the groundbreaking Albany MVA Project. This volume will appeal to a broad audience of practitioners, researchers, and physicians; attorneys who handle MVA survivor cases; and those interested in public safety issues.
Book Review
This state-of the art-book is scholarly, comprehensive, and clinically relevant. This work should be required reading for researchers and clinicians who deal with traumatized populations. I am certain that it will be extensively cited and become the standard in its field.
—Philip A. Saigh, PhD, Professor of Psychology & Education, Department of Health & Behavior Studies, Teachers College, Columbia University
