Among other things, Straton challenges the various polices and procedures that compensate for PTSD when there is still hope for treatment. When compensation for illness is available and the illness is treatable, there is an obvious barrier to recovery and an incentive to remain ill. The lively discussion that follows both illustrates the diversity of the Traumatic Stress list and the field of traumatology generally. There are many reviewers to thank in making this issue possible. Among others are Beth Stamm, Les Posen, Matthew Freidman, Gerald French, Beth Stamm, Robert Yourell, Bruce H. Young, Michael McGee, Kathy Gilbert, Nancy Simpson, Pat Hughes, David Baldwin, Don Catherall, C.B. Scrignar, Nathan Denny, Fred Gallo, Anne Detrich, Joseph Boscarino, Roger Callahan, Monica Pignotti, Fred Gallo, and Victoria Danzig.
Special appreciation goes to the staff.
