内容简介

On the Ground after September 11 is an insightful compilation of over one hundred personal and professional first-hand accounts of the September 11 experience - from the moment the first plane crashed into the North Tower of the World Trade Center, to the many months mental health professionals worked to erase the pain and trauma of others even while they themselves were traumatised. This remarkable chronicle reveals the breadth and depth of human need and courage along with the practical organisational considerations encountered in the responses to terrorist attacks. Reading these unique personal accounts of that day, the difficult days that followed, and beyond, provides a thoughtful, moving, rational view of what is truly needed in times of disaster.
