The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma by Bessel van der Kolk

Did not finish book. Stopped at 7%.
It's more focused on displaying trauma than understanding/helping. Feels like the author excuses the atrocities done by the traumatized just because they were traumatized themselves.  I think it has the potential to retraumatize more than help. I would not recommend it to anyone suffering from C/PTSD
