Review :
. - A straightforward guide to the assessment and treatment of modern service members....It would surely be useful not only to practitioners of psychology in today's armed forces, but also to clinicians and leaders in a variety of circumstances whose work brings them into contact with service members. The book covers clinical and operational psychology in rich detail. --The Military Psychologist, 7/21/2012ƒƒ Any mental health practitioner who deals with our men and women in uniform should get to know this volume well....Blend[s] just the right amount of academic scholarship, practical utility, and user-friendly readability. --International Journal of Emergency Mental Health, 7/21/2012ƒƒ It is rare to encounter a book with so little to critique....Provides state-of-the-art and practical perspectives for the psychologist serving on the front lines of occupational behavioral health. --PsycCRITIQUES, 7/21/2012ƒƒ Each chapter is authored independently. This makes the book an ideal class supplement because the instructor can use each unique topic according to the needs of the class....This work is invaluable in the hands of almost any graduate student, and is an absolute must-have for any social services or medical practitioner. --Bulletin of the Menninger Clinic, 7/21/2012
