James L. McGaugh, author of Memory and Emotions
An accessible, exciting and valuable description of a complex and important issue in mental health: the effects of trauma/stress on depression and anxiety - particularly in women - as mediated by ruminative thought patterns. It draws from many diverse areas of research and presents a beautifully developed analysis suggesting the value of specific mental and physical (MAP) activities to increase resilience to trauma: fascinating from a research perspective; potentially important in all of our lives!
Caroline Blanchard, Emeritus Professor, University of Hawaii
