À propos de la quatrième de couverture

'What Doesn't Kill Us is a book of wisdom - both for those who have undergone great stress as well as for those who love and treat them. It is psychology at its best: honest, hopeful, helpful, and based on sound, serious research' Robert J. Wicks, Professor, Loyola University Maryland, and author of Bounce: Living the Resilient Life

For the past twenty years, Stephen Joseph has worked with survivors of trauma and sufferers of posttraumatic stress. In this groundbreaking new book, he boldly challenges current notions about trauma and its aftermath. His studies have shown that a wide range of traumatic event - from illness, divorce, separation, assault and bereavement to accidents, natural disasters and terrorism - rather than necessarily ruining lives can act as catalysts for positive change, strengthening relationships, changing one's perspective and revealing inner strengths.

In What Doesn't Kill Us, Stephen Joseph shares the six steps we can all use to manage our emotions and navigate adversity to find new meaning, purpose and direction in our lives.

'What Doesn't Kill Us is an invaluable guide for anyone wanting to know how to cope with trauma' Elaine Fox, PhD, Professor of Psychology, University of Essex
