5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Examination of the Right Questions, March 24, 2008
"Who Gets PTSD?" contains research by Violanti, Paton and others on why many police officers suffer full-blown PTSD and others do not. The book looks at trauma types, frequency of exposure, personal, event and organizational influences for keys. "From the moment the police officer enters police work, the socialization process molds him/her into depersonalized relationships and a myth of indestructibility. The effect of trauma, with its ensuing surge of emotions, devastates this myth."

Excellent advanced reading for instructors, peer officers and others involved in police mental health programs.
