How trauma and stress affects our health ( ) An impressive recount of a career looking after trauma survivors and the development of clinical techniques to help people regain as best as possible lives. The book is difficult and covers some terrible case histories. It also decries the political inaction or attrition in helping trauma victims with methods shown to work. So that overall the story is depressing. But the perspective one gets on mental health and how large organisations like government handle it is sobering and disappointing. There is so much to be said within this book that is so informative. The impact that trauma has on the body, is something that needs to be screamed from the rooftops. This book took me some time to get through - partially due to writing a PhD dissertation at the same time, but it is very technical. It can be a lot to take in. And some of the stories and examples given can be confronting. I’ve really found this book to be brilliant. I have notes all throughout the book, sticky notes everywhere! But I really recommend it for those who want to know the impact of trauma on the body as well as the brain! Information value: 7.0 / 10 Content density: 8 Structure (Story): 9 / 10 Prose: 9 Be forewarned: This is not a personal development book. I presumed that the person who recommended it to me did so in that vain, just as my suggestions to her were. However, one of us made a mistake. Not being the book I was expecting, nor of a genre I would consider reading, I kept waiting for some tips on dealing with trauma. Part of the psycho-therpeudical school of thought is that everyone has trauma. That was why this book was supposed to have universal relevance. However, I don't recall the author ever taking that stance, and all the techniques that were introduced, were done so in a slightly academic manner; not as useful standalone exercises. Note that I read the book over many periods. The library loan kept expiring as I read this piece of non-fiction alongside my preferred pleasure of literary and genre fiction. As a result, my comments might have some inaccuricies. You probably know to expect that from me anyway. My only major complaint is that the ending section on treatment is far more anecdotally-based than the rest of the book, which lays out a lot of solid research and statistics. The suggestions offered all seem to be variations of "here's things that worked in our practice, maybe try them, it's a pity there aren't any studies out there on them, though," which seems... not like a cop-out, but certainly less rigorous than the preceding building of the argument.
Packed with science and human stories, the book is an intense read that can get technical. Stay with it, though: van der Kolk has a lot to say, and the struggle and resilience of his patients is very moving.

HTML:#1 New York Times bestseller ??Essential reading for anyone interested in understanding and treating traumatic stress and the scope of its impact on society.? ??Alexander McFarlane, Director of the Centre for Traumatic Stress Studies A pioneering researcher transforms our understanding of trauma and offers a bold new paradigm for healing in this New York Times bestseller Trauma is a fact of life. Veterans and their families deal with the painful aftermath of combat; one in five Americans has been molested; one in four grew up with alcoholics; one in three couples have engaged in physical violence. Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, one of the world??s foremost experts on trauma, has spent over three decades working with survivors. In The Body Keeps the Score, he uses recent scientific advances to show how trauma literally reshapes both body and brain, compromising sufferers?? capacities for pleasure, engagement, self-control, and trust. He explores innovative treatments??from neurofeedback and meditation to sports, drama, and yoga??that offer new paths to recovery by activating the brain??s natural neuroplasticity. Based on Dr. van der Kolk??s own research and that of other leading specialists, The Body Keeps the Score exposes the tremendous power of our relationships both to hurt and to heal??and offers Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
