Book Description

April 1, 1997 Series in Trauma and Loss
This text gathers together the most efficient and effective tools to ease the pain of grief and promote the natural process of bereavement. The purpose of the text is fourfold. Firstly, to provide a theoretical bridge between two fields by providing conceptual terminology, such as defining both "normal" versus "dysfunctional bereavement" and the meaning and range of death-related PTSD. Secondly, the volume confirms and illustrates the identical patterns of reactions between those who survive the death of a loved one and other traumatic events. Next, the text applies the most useful theoretical models to the bereavement experience, and in turn acknowledeges the utility of generalizing bereavement models to other traumatic experiences. The volume's final purpose is to identify and apply the most useful and effective approaches in traumatology literature to the study, diagnosis, and treatment of traumatic stressors other than death.

More About the Author

My most recent book, Mapping Trauma and Its Wake: Autobiographic Essays by Pioneer Trauma Scholars (Routledge Psychosocial Stress Series, 31), includes a chapter I wrote about myself. It is the most disclosive of any of my works. Indeed, my first book, Stress Disorders among Vietnam Veterans (1978), gave no indication that I was a vet myself.
In Mapping (just out) I describe my decision to enter the Marine Corps rather than going to William and Mary college after graduation. I would love to hear what you think. My phone number is 850 644 9598 but the best way to communicate with me is via email (cfigley@fsu.edu).
Warm regards,
Charles
