The Effects of Childhood Trauma on Adult Perception and Worldview was an informative work on the minds of those who have been been traumatized. It examined many aspects of trauma and the relationship on the individual, their mindsets, perceptions, and overall responses to the traumatic event.
I've yet to read Dr. Brown's book on trauma, but having previously consumed his book "Waiting to Live" I have no doubt that this will prove a masterpiece. I have worked for years with individuals who have had remarkable traumatic experiences.
I am a faculty member of the psychology department at a community college. I have briefly reviewed a copy that I recently acquired. I am requiring all of my students to read this resource for their benefit.

As a volunteer for a local agency, I have gained great insights into the effects of trauma. I have found this research to be invaluable. This book offers practical suggestions to managing problems that often follow on from an abusive childhood. It offered details that I never had considered. For me, it's details of trauma offer a new perspective on trauma. I'd recommend it very strongly. It is an essential read if you had a troubled childhood and are looking for a structured way to make sense of...more
