This edition is greatly enhanced by the editing skills of Robert Rich, Ph.D., a noted Australian author, editor, and psychologist who has provided substantial input on both proofreading and technical fronts. Dr. Rich has now signed on as series editor for the Explorations in Metapsychology Series.

Beyond Trauma, 2nd Edition will have much wider distribution owing to the inclusion of Ingram Book Group in the supply chain. Furthermore, by arrangement with Lightning Source Inc, the book has simultaneous production and distribution in USA and the UK.
