In recent years , we have seen an unacceptable increase in human-inflicted violence-people going berserk, seemingly out of nowhere and ( only on the surface) for no reason. The hideous images are seared into our memory. Tragically, health care workers on the front lines are not immune. In their daily work, they have been victims of homicides, hostage- takings robberies, physical and sexual assaults, and psychological trauma of all kinds. The violent Person is for these individuals as well as the general reader. It is written in jargon- free language by one of the foremost experts in the world on posttraumatic stress disorder (PSTD). Here is a book for anyone for anyone with a concern for, and interest in, the mechanisms of human violence, stress at the breaking point, and the workings of the human brain. This book is written to save lives.
