Summary:"The Psychiatric Evaluation and Treatment of Refugees is a cutting-edge volume of contributions that help mental health professionals better understand the outcomes and solutions for the complicated mix of trauma and immigration with culture and worldview found in the treatment of refugee patients. Written by experts in cross-cultural psychiatry, the book holds a balance between up-to-date science and the collective experiential wisdom of the Intercultural Psychiatric Program at the Oregon Health & Science University, providing a key reference for psychiatrists and other mental health professionals working in cross-cultural trauma. The editors and authors of this volume have contributed to an understanding of the blend of necessary science/evidence and compassion that gives mental health providers insight as to how to understand and treat these often traumatized patients"--Publisher's description.
