Nijenhuis, Ellert R. S.: The Trinity of Trauma: Ignorance, Fragility, and Control. [Vol. I-II]

[Two Parts in one]: Volume I: The Evolving Concept of Trauma. Volume II: The Concept and Facts of Dissociation in Trauma. Translated by Joseph A. Smith. Volume I aims to overcome conceptual flaws that have plagued the trauma field to date. It proposes new definitions of trauma and derivative concepts as well as a dimension of trauma-related disorders. It suggests that individuals and their environment constitute, depend on, and are relative to each other. Volume I unites two groups of trauma-related disorders that were previously contrasted in psychiatric history under various names such as "melancholia" versus "hysteria", "traumatic neurosis" versus "traumatic hysteria", and "posttraumatic stress disorder" versus "dissociative disorders". It also mends the "dissociation" of dissociative and conversion disorders. Volume II analyzes and defines the concepts of "personality", "self", "dissociation in trauma", and "dissociative parts". It explores and documents the biopsychosocial features of different prototypical dissociative parts in traumatized individuals. Important features of these parts also characterize other players in traumatization, stretching from perpetrators to society at large. Zwei Teile in einem Band, zus.
