Current research and clinical observations suggest pronounced gender-based differences in the ways people respond to traumatic events. Most notably, women evidence twice the rate of PTSD as men following traumatic exposure. This important volume brings together leading clinical scientists to analyze the current state of knowledge on gender and PTSD. Cogent findings are presented on gender-based differences and influences in such areas as trauma exposure, risk factors, cognitive and physiological processes, comorbidity, and treatment response. Going beyond simply cataloging gender-related data, the book explores how the research can guide us in developing more effective clinical services for both women and men. Incorporating cognitive, biological, physiological, and sociocultural perspectives, this is an essential sourcebook and text.

Very helpful for both victims and family members involved with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I have PTSD and this book helped me better understand myself and the big impact PTSD has on me and those around me. It is helpful.
While this is an impressive book, it's contents rest on a rather slender body of research. Far from adequate research exists on PTSD and gender, and none of the papers inside even deal with one of the foremost populations of women with PTSD which provides a rich field ripe for study; women veterans. This glaring omission needs to be remedied ASAP.
