About this title

Review

Trauma has returned to center stage in our clinical and theoretical thinking. This book enriches our understanding of trauma from all the pertinent perspectives. It will be invaluable for all in the field, both for treating people and thinking about trauma.--Daniel S. Stern, MD, Adjunct Professor of Psychiatry, Cornell Medical School; author of The Interpersonal World of the Infant

This remarkable collection of articles summarizes much of the best current thinking on trauma, attachment research, neurobiology, and its application to psychodynamic psychotherapy. It is an outstanding achievement.--Beatrice Beebe, PhD, Clinical Professor of Psychology in Psychiatry, NYS Psychiatric Institute, Columbia University

This is an extraordinary book. It provides an up-to-the-minute integration of attachment trauma and neuroscience. Each contribution provides an essential chart to guide the therapist in understanding this most difficult group of clients. Taken together, the chapters compose a veritable atlas mapping this world of the unbearable and unthinkable. Without such theoretical and practical guides, the therapist working with trauma can become as vulnerable as the client she or he attempts to heal.--Peter Fonagy, PhD, FBA, Freud Memorial Professor of Psychoanalysis at University College London and Director, Child and Family Center, The Menninger Clinic, Topeka, KS
