Critical Incident Stress Management: A New Era and Standard of Care in Crisis Intervention

The author's use of this book has set the new standard for crisis care and disaster preparedness. The principles and tools contained inside Critical Incident Stress Management are global and innovative. The only drawback is the author's use of diagnositic terminology that demands that the reader have at least a rudimentary mental health background. Inspite of this, I highly recommend this book to crisis workers and other helping professionals. This is an excellent choice for textbook material in the classroom.
