520 This multidisciplinary volume provides an overview of
refugee mental health problems and suggests approaches to
intervention. It is impossible to isolate these problems
from the context in which they arise, and as a result the
book also provides information on demographics, history,
epidemiology, policy formation, mental health services,
training, and specific regional concerns.
520 We hope that mental health professionals, scientists, and
administrators who have had experience working with
refugees will find this book to be . . . a source of new
ideas and methods. We also hope that those readers who are
encountering the problem of refugee mental health and well
-being for the first time in reading this book will find a
selective and timely introduction to the historical,
conceptual, and professional dimensions of the problem.
