"This volume addresses issues such as secondary traumatization, intergenerational transmission of trauma, and the role of attachment security, with individual chapters on specific topics including chronic illness, loss, sexual abuse, incest, and intimacy. Its synergistic blending of research and theory coupled with a collection of examples and practical information make this an invaluable reference for students, teachers, and practitioners at all levels of experience."--BOOK JACKET.
