A pioneering researcher transforms our understanding of trauma and offers a bold new paradigm for healing in this New York Times Science 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 new hope for reclaiming lives.

Review This Product

Exceptional book providing insight into trauma and its treatment

Thu, 4 Aug 2022 | Review by: Ria

Dr Bessel van der Kolk succeeds in explaining complex issues around trauma and its treatment to the lay person. He brings profound insight and knowledge through his research and dedication, and has changed so many lives. This book is a huge contribution to spreading his knowledge to people who cannot participate in person at his trauma centres. A must read, not only for people who suffered trauma, but for all: you will definitely gain insight and benefit in the long run, whether for yourself or someone else.
