Children

Résumé du livre

"This book is an effort to bring together our understanding of the effects of stress, traumatic events and disasters on children and their families. While children are generally exposed to the same spectrum of hazards as adults, they are still maturing physically, emotinally, cognitively and socially. Thus, the impact of perceived threat or physical harm must be understood in terms of the child's developmental level and also within the family and social context within which the child lives."--Page 7
