Summary: If You Buy Nothing Else, Buy This
Comment: Whether you are a professional working with trauma clients, a person who has undergone significant trauma, or the family member or friend of that person, you MUST get this book.

Buy it because you will want to return to it again and again. Jon Allen writes with compassion and respect about the effects of trauma, both psychological and physiological. In addition, he writes with great humility from a tremendous knowledge base.

The book is a great resource to read either from front to back, or in sections as they seem helpful. Every person I know who has read this book has gained significant insight.

If this review seems effusive, it is because this book is that WELL WRITTEN and USEFUL. It reflects both the horror of trauma as well as the hope for recovery.

It has set a new standard in understanding trauma and the recovery from trauma and is a must read for anyone who claims serious interest in the topic.

Summary: Ideal book for current nationwide trauma
Comment: I am amending my review of this book, to add that I think this is THE ideal emotional health book for our nation to read, in light of the terrorist attacks on our country. It can be an enourmous help for our citizens to help calm and clarify things for all of us.

I've spent years researching emotional health, and trauma as well. Of all the books I've read in the field, Coping With Trauma - is by far the single best book for emotional self-care and self-teaching that I've seen. Period!

I own 3 copies now, and have put it in the hands of many others. I almost always get amazingly joyful feedback shortly after they start the book.

... But Dr. Allen's book is THE guide for making those changes and self-healing, and beats any therapist doing it, I've come across. It should be required reading in high schools and colleges.

Read this!

It deserves a Nobel nomination.

Summary: Very Good
Comment: This book is great for people who have at least a rudimentary understanding of psychology. I had a number of revelations while reading it, and my psychiatrist even borrowed it for a court case he had to appear in.

I've suffered from PTSD for 25 years and found this book to be enlightening and informative. If you are unfamiliar with general psych terms, this book may not be the place to start--otherwise it's very good.
