Reviews

'... a very comprehensive and fascinating book ... This book is of value to anyone interested in understanding the traumas of the refugee experience and different methods of coping. It is especially useful for counsellors wishing to help refugees cope with their traumas, and particularly how an understanding of the support from family and cultural ties can help. It will be relevant mainly to psychologists, psychiatrists and social care workers who contribute to the welfare of refugees.' Shirley Hodgson, Medicine, Conflict and Survival
