  There are few professionals who do not have to deal with other people's crises, whether a nurse caring for the victim of a road accident, a doctor breaking bad news or a teacher dealing with a child whose parents are separating. Some are trained in crisis work; most are expected to pick it up as they go along. This is a book for anyone who works with people in crisis. It may also be of interest to their clients, since it aims to give a basic understanding of what a crisis is, how individuals respond and how best to help, by relating to their own experience.
