Posttraumatic Growth reworks and overhauls the seminal 2006 Handbook of Posttraumatic Growth. It provides a wide range of answers to questions concerning knowledge of posttraumatic growth (PTG) theory, its synthesis and contrast with other theories and models, and its applications in diverse settings. The book starts with an overview of the history, components, and outcomes of PTG. Next, chapters review quantitative, qualitative, and cross-cultural research on PTG, including in relation to cognitive function, identity formation, cross-national and gender differences, and similarities and differences between adults and children. The final section shows readers how to facilitate optimal outcomes with PTG at the level of the individual, the group, the community, and society.

Having a traumatic experience does not automatically mean someone will develop PTSD. In fact, many men and women--from veterans to victims of assault to those injured in accidents--have reported that, through their struggles with the effects of trauma, they now experience life differently and have found meaning in their traumatic life event. Written by two psychologists and experts on trauma psychology--including one of the key researchers on posttraumatic growth (PTG)--this unique, evidence-based, step-by-step workbook offers trauma survivors a new model for processing their traumatic experience in order to gain wisdom, strength, and resilience.
