The authors explore previous research on psychological responses to warfare while providing background information on the Sierra Leone civil war and its context. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapters consider particular groups of survivors, including former child soldiers, as well as amputee footballers, mental health service users and providers, and refugees. Implications of the themes emerging from this research are considered with respect to how new understandings can inform current models of trauma and work with its survivors. Amongst the issues concerned will be post-traumatic stress and post-traumatic growth; resilience; mental health service provision; perpetration of atrocities; and forgiveness. The book also provides a critical consideration of the appropriateness of the use of Western concepts and methods in an African context.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing upon psychological theory and rich narrative research, \u003ci\u003eTrauma, Survival and Resilience in War Zones\u003c\/i\u003e will appeal to researchers and academics in the field of clinical psychology, as well as those studying post-war conflict zones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Winter,Rachel Brown,Stephanie Goins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138799696\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138799691\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/05\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.16lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.63d","brand":"David Winter","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48136520237311,"sku":"9781138799691","price":210.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_07c178f5-0164-44b1-8491-9dc7edeec9db.jpg?v=1770163203","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/trauma-survival-and-resilience-in-david-winter-9781138799691","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
