According to

Association, Past President, New York Psychoanalytic Society, “Dr. Rudofossi's comprehensive volume is intended for
all those concerned with the care of psychologically traumatized workers in the field of public safety. From the first page
to the last, it engages the reader in a conversation with a learned and experienced fellow therapist who is committed to his
work and who has himself spent years as a police officer in New York City. The book contains illuminating case histories and
an extensive review of the pertinent literature. Its author exhibits an admirable balance of enthusiasm and humility. He conveys
to his readers how complex and difficult is the task to which he and they are committed, without losing any of the optimism
and determination that are necessary to overcome its difficulties.”
According to
Vincent M. Mansfield, Commanding Officer, Medical Division, NYPD Retired Chief, NYPD, “Dr.
Dan Rudofossi's Working with Traumatized Police-Officer Patients is thorough, clearly expressed, and, most important, sorely
needed. His book will prove of great value to clinicians, police administrators, and anyone concerned with learning about
real trauma and its effect on law enforcement personnel. Because he is both a street cop and so astute a clinician, Dr. Rudofossi
was able to straddle an imposing gulf and secure the trust of those he treated. This book is a rare piece of scholarship.”
