    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Post-Traumatic Stress and Trauma-Informed Practice: A Practical Guide, Third Edition offers a comprehensive and accessible overview of post-traumatic stress and other reactions that may develop following exposure to traumatic events such as life-threatening situations, violent crime, sexual assault, or witnessing death. Post-traumatic stress is characterized by persistent emotional distress and disruption to psychological well-being.

    This fully updated edition presents the latest research and practical insights in a clear user-friendly format. It is designed to inform and support a wide range of professions, from general practitioners, counsellors, psychologists, and other professionals-including paramedics, military personnel, police officers, social workers, and humanitarian aid workers-who encounter trauma in their work. It will also be of help to trauma survivors and their families wishing to understand more about the impact of psychological trauma and what may help.

    The guide begins with an overview of post-traumatic stress and related conditions, foundational knowledge on trauma responses, theoretical frameworks, assessment, treatment, and research, along with a brief history of the field. New chapters explore emerging concepts such as post-traumatic growth, highlighting how individuals can derive meaning from adversity and move beyond recovery. Updated discussions on traumatic loss and workplace trauma, reflecting the latest theoretical developments.

    Drawing on decades of clinical and research experience, authors Regel and Joseph provide practical tools for identifying signs of post-traumatic stress in contexts including bereavement, physical injury, and occupational trauma. Their evidence-based strategies informed by current research and best practice guidelines make this an essential resource for professionals.

    This is such a helpful and accessible book for all those working alongside people who have experienced traumatic events. The evidence and guidance are clearly summarised and brought to life through case examples. I really recommend it and wouldn't be without it.
