"Trauma and Survival provides a stimulating and provocative discussion of the primary issues that need to be taken into account when thinking about the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorders in women. Waites' observations about dissociation as a major factor in PTSD form a brilliant and exciting framework within which to understand the impact of abuse on women. This is the next stage of development in PTSD treatment and must reading for any clinician who works with victims of violence." --Lenore E. Walker, Ed.D., A.B.P.P. author of Terrifying Love: Why Battered Women Kill and How Society Responds
