Nice book
As expected
by pragya
solely a narration of author’s achievements
I read this book and discovered two things:1. Stress in childhood is bad.2. Author did a lot for the community.The whole book is a glorified narrative of author’s efforts. But no practical or useful advice is offered to the readers.Can be skipped if you are looking to heal.

She offers a compelling case for early intervention and the importance of addressing trauma at its root.The book is both informative and empathetic, making complex scientific information accessible while also being deeply compassionate toward those affected by trauma.

by Karen
This book was so well written, that I actually read it like a novel. Excellent case examples, clearly researched and evidenced. Reading this will not only inform practice and training, but will positively impact directly on those who have experienced ‘adverse childhood experiences’.
by Mira
Very interesting book with breakthrough information about childhood trauma. Very informative and well written. I highly recommend it.
