Human Strengths and Resilience : Developmental, Cross-Cultural, and International Perspectives

Human and Strengths fills a gap in current literature on trauma survivors. Co-editors Grant J. Rich and Skultip (Jill) Sirikantraporn have assembled an international group of leading contributors who have taught, counseled, consulted, and conducted research in all regions of the world, including North America, Europe, Asia, Africa, the Pacific Region, Latin America, the Caribbean Region, and the Middle East. Contributors to this edited collection use their expertise to highlight positive psychology and strength-based approaches to post-traumatic growth and resilience in understudied, developing nations like Cambodia, Haiti, India, Syria, Armenia, Sierra Leone, Taiwan, Guatemala, and South Africa.
