"This is an easy and accessible read and therefore a good intro to the subject of trauma. However, I did find it a little simplistic in that the explanation of what could cause trauma seemed to lack a little nuance or to be a little narrow, and the self-help aspect of the book seemed to set up unrealistic expectations of what an individual can accomplish on hir own in terms of working through trauma."
"Some interesting research and ideas regarding healing trauma. Most of the book was repetitive and the argument was often convoluted and incomprehensible--much of it seemed just a rehash of psych 101 rather than the big psychology breakthrough it claims. I was disappointed."
