"In this latest insightful volume gathered and edited by Marilyn
Luber, the authors have combined the lessons learned with personal
accounts of how they proceeded. There is still much to be done to
integrate mental health care effectively into disaster response
world-wide, but this volume will help to point the way to best
practices."
