Why the honoree chose the book
In her essential first book, Trauma and Recovery, Judith Herman redefined the field of trauma studies, and her work has been inspirational to students, trauma researchers, and interventionists. This follow-up uses the same feminist and critical lens to propose an approach to the treatment of trauma that is justice-oriented and revolutionary. This book is as emotionally evocative as it is inspiring for anyone interested in learning more about resilience and recovery in the face of traumatic events.
