Sample Book Insights: #1 The study of psychological trauma is to come face to face with human vulnerability in the natural world, and with the capacity for evil in human nature. To study psychological trauma means to bear witness to horrible events, and when the events are of human design, those who bear witness are caught in the conflict between victim and perpetrator. #2 The study of psychological trauma depends on the support of a political movement. Without a political movement that supports the study and acceptance of trauma, the active process of bearing witness is inevitably replaced by the active process of forgetting. #3 The study of hysteria, shell shock, and sexual and domestic violence is built upon a synthesis of these three separate lines of investigation. #4 The term hysteria was so commonly understood at the time that no one had actually taken the time to define it systematically. It was a disorder that manifested itself in women, and was believed to be a disease originating in the uterus.
