“This is a great and exciting book; a volume filled with stories of endeavour, achievement, appraisal
and learning; stories of heroism, challenge and hope. It will become a handbook for all who would
research the impact of disaster and terrorism on mental health and well-being.”
Beverley Raphael
Does terrorism have a unique and significant emotional and behavioral impact among adults
and children?
In what way does the impact of terrorism exceed the individual level and affect communities
and specific professional groups, and test different leadership styles?
How were professional communities of mental health clinicians, policy makers, and researchers
mobilized to respond to the emerging needs post-disaster?
What are the lessons learned from the work conducted after 9/11, and the implications for
future disaster mental health work and preparedness efforts?
Yuval Neria and his team are uniquely placed to answer these questions having been involved in
modifying ongoing trials and setting up new ones in New York to address these issues straight after
the attacks. No psychiatrist, mental health professional or policy-maker should be without this book.
Yuval Neria is Associate Clinical Professor of Medical Psychology at the Department of
Psychiatry at the College of Physicians and Surgeons, Columbia University; and the Department
of Epidemiology, Joseph L. Mailman School of Public Health; and Associate Director of Trauma
Studies and Services at The New York State Psychiatric Institute.
Raz Gross is Assistant Professor of Epidemiology and Psychiatry, Department of Epidemiology,
Joseph L. Mailman School of Public Health; and Department of Psychiatry, College of Physicians
and Surgeons, Columbia University.
Randall D. Marshall is Director of Trauma Studies and Services, New York State Psychiatric
Institute; Associate Director, Anxiety Disorders Clinic, New York State Psychiatric Institute, and
Associate Professor of Clinical Psychiatry, Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons.
Ezra Susser is Professor of Epidemiology and Psychiatry at the College of Physicians and
Surgeons, Columbia University; Chair of the Department of Epidemiology at the Joseph L.
Mailman School of Public Health, Columbia University; and Head of the Department of
Epidemiology of Brain Disorders at the New York State Psychiatric Institute.
9/11: Mental Health in the Wake of Terrorist Attacks
This book is dedicated to those killed in the attacks of September 11, 2001; and is written
for those who survived them, and mourned, and to all who have suffered because of
what they saw and feared and felt, and lost.
Yuval Neria: For Mariana, Michal, Oren and Maya, who shared this journey and
created the safe space which enabled its fulfillment; and for my dear parents and sister
with love.
Raz Gross: For Natalie, Roy, Elie, and Daria; for my dear parents; and for my brother
Aeyal and my sister Vardit, with great love.
Randall Marshall: For Tessa, Rory and Thalia, and my parents and brother Rodney,
who are my teachers on the nature of love; and for Reece Marshal (1971–2001), who
would have understood.
