EP 1107B - Trauma: The Invisible Epidemic

In Trauma: The Invisible Epidemic, Dr. Paul Conti examines the most recent research, clinical best practices, and dozens of real-life stories to present a deeper, richer, and more urgent view of trauma. Every single one of us is affected by trauma, though some carry a heavier burden than others. Understanding its insidious effects and far-reaching complications is vital to charting the path to healing for all.

In the book, Dr. Conti traces a step-by-step series of concrete changes that we can make both as individuals and as a society to alleviate trauma’s effects and prevent further traumatization in the future, including the different post-trauma syndromes, how they are classified, and their common symptoms, an examination of how for-profit health care systems can inhibit diagnosis and treatment of trauma, and the argument for a renewed humanist social commitment to mental health and wellness.
