"This book will surely become a landmark work on the social impact of psychological trauma and on its treatments.... A magnificent gift to survivors."-- Women's Review of Books, Advance Praise for "Adventures in Human Being" From shell shock in World War I to childhood sexual abuse today, the reality of trauma has been denied. But as this indispensable book makes clear, Remembering and telling the truth about terrible events are prerequisites both for the restoration of the social order and for the healing of individual victims. Gloria Steinem, "New York Times T Magazine" ", "Herman's brilliant insights into the nature of trauma and the process of healing shine through in every page of this rich and compassionate book."-- Lenore Walker, ED.D., Director, Domestic Violence Institute , and author of Terrifying Love, Advance Praise for Adventures in Human Being "From shell shock in World War I to childhood sexual abuse today, the reality of trauma has been denied. But as this indispensable book makes clear, 'Remembering and telling the truth about terrible events are prerequisites both for the restoration of the social order and for the healing of individual victims.'" --Gloria Steinem, New York Times' T Magazine, "Astute, accessible, and beautifully documented. Bridging the worlds of war veterans, prisoners of war, battered women, and incest victims, Herman presents a compelling analysis of trauma and the process of healing. A triumph."-- Laura Davis , coauthor of The Courage to Heal, "Herman links the public traumas of society to those of domestic life in this provocative work of psychiatric theory."-- Publishers Weekly, "A stunning achievement ... a classic for our generation."-- Bessel van der Kolk, M.D. , author of The Body Keeps the Score

Synopsis
A revised and updated edition of the groundbreaking work that changed the way we think about and treat traumatic events and trauma victims. "A stunning achievement ... a classic for our generation." --Bessel van der Kolk, M.D., author of The Body Keeps the Score When Trauma and Recovery was first published in 1992, it was hailed as a groundbreaking work. In the intervening years, it has become the basic text for understanding trauma survivors. By placing individual experience in a broader political frame, Judith Herman argues that psychological trauma can be understood only in a social context. Drawing on her own research on incest, as well as on a vast literature on combat veterans and victims of political terror, she shows surprising parallels between private horrors like child abuse and public horrors like war. A new epilogue reviews what has changed--and what has not changed--over two decades. Trauma and Recovery is essential reading for anyone who seeks to understand how we heal and are healed., In this groundbreaking book, a leading clinical psychiatrist redefines how we think about and treat victims of trauma. A "stunning achievement" that remains a "classic for our generation." (Bessel van der Kolk, M.D., author of The Body Keeps the Score ). Trauma and Recovery is revered as the seminal text on understanding trauma survivors. By placing individual experience in a broader political frame, Harvard psychiatrist Judith Herman argues that psychological trauma is inseparable from its social and political context. Drawing on her own research on incest, as well as a vast literature on combat veterans and victims of political terror, she shows surprising parallels between private horrors like child abuse and public horrors like war. Hailed by the New York Times as "one of the most important psychiatry works to be published since Freud," Trauma and Recovery is essential reading for anyone who seeks to understand how we heal and are healed., "Trauma and Recovery" is universally recognized as a classic in the field of psychology. In a new afterword written for this edition, Judith Herman describes the controversy that has surrounded her work, the new research that has emerged in the field, an the far-reaching implications that this book has had in trauma situations around the world.
