Riassunto

Moral Injury Research, Discussions, and Support Methods provides invaluable insights for researchers, practitioners, and individuals aiming to comprehend and tackle the profound psychological distress known as moral injury.

This comprehensive book delves into the essence of moral injury, exploring its sources, impacts, and the emotional pain associated with guilt, shame, betrayal, and moral transgressions. The text is enriched with compelling quotes and stories from veterans and other individuals who have experienced moral injury, offering readers a deep and personal understanding of this phenomenon.
