Summary: "How are people and communities able to prevail despite challenge? What helps them bounce back from adversity and even grow in knowledge and understanding? And can this resilience be taught? During the past decade, exciting scientific advances have shed light on how resilience operates from neurons to neighborhoods. In The Resilience Handbook, experts in the science of resilience draw on human and animal research to describe the process of resilience and follow its course as it unfolds both within individuals and in social networks. Contributors also highlight the promise of new interventions that apply what we know about resilience processes to bolster positive health, and raise some of the pressing questions and issues for the field as it matures" -- publisher's description.

How are people and communities able to prevail despite challenge? What helps them bounce back from adversity and even grow in knowledge and understanding? And can this resilience be taught? During the past decade, exciting scientific advances have shed light on how resilience operates from neurons to neighborhoods. In The Resilience Handbook , experts in the science of resilience draw on human and animal research to describe the process of resilience and follow its course as it unfolds both within individuals and in social networks. Contributors also highlight the promise of new interventions that apply what we know about resilience processes to bolster positive health, and raise some of the pressing questions and issues for the field as it matures.

This handbook is designed to be used by students as an invitation to a burgeoning field; by researchers, as a framework for advancing theories, hypotheses, and empirical tests of resilience functions; and by clinicians, as a comprehensive and up-to-the-minute integration of theory and practice.

CHOICE Review

Kent, Davis, and Reich (all, Arizona State Univ.) have compiled a strong resource for specialists interested in human stress reactions. The book presents the physiological responses to stress that have been delineated only in the last few decades. Some contributors make explicit links between various stress responses and neurochemical and dyadic treatments. Although these new treatments are not yet well researched, the outlook for their effectiveness is compelling. The cognitive behavioral treatment model for training resilience Kent and Davis provide (chapter 17) looks promising as well. Their premise is that actions that are under individual control must be promoted so that people can feel a sense of agency in the face of trauma. "Psychological first aid" (PFA) is mostly ignored as a treatment model for traumatized people, and this exclusion seems unwise, given the data about benefits of PFA. Summing Up: Highly recommended.
