Shaili Jain

    En 2007, l'auteure a découvert la vérité sur le destin tragique de sa famille lors de la Partition de l'Inde en 1947. Cette histoire familiale de pertes et de terreur, enterrée pendant des décennies, l'a poussée vers une nouvelle carrière dédiée à l'avancement de la science du traumatisme psychologique et au déverrouillage des secrets de la résilience humaine. Dans son œuvre, elle brosse un portrait nuancé du trouble de stress post-traumatique (TSPT), s'appuyant sur deux décennies d'expérience auprès de survivants de divers traumatismes. Elle entrelace ces récits avec des neurosciences de pointe et l'histoire de sa propre famille, expliquant pourquoi le stress traumatique est une partie inévitable de nos vies.

      The Unspeakable Mind serves as a crucial guide in our trauma-burdened age. Dr. Shaili Jain, a psychiatrist and PTSD specialist, illuminates the widespread PTSD epidemic affecting millions of Americans. This disorder extends beyond war-related experiences, impacting over six million people at any given time and interfering with their ability to love, create, and work due to a complex interplay of biology, genetics, and environment. The book highlights the societal imprint of PTSD, particularly in the wake of 9/11 and the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, as the science surrounding it has rapidly advanced. Dr. Jain advocates for a paradigm shift in the approach to PTSD, drawing from her decade of clinical innovation and research. She emphasizes the transformation of PTSD care through integrated models, peer support programs, and technology, making treatment more accessible and effective. By identifying vulnerable individuals and exploring cutting-edge medical interventions, the potential for preventing PTSD is becoming increasingly tangible. Through patient stories and insights from leading trauma scientists, the book offers a comprehensive understanding of this invisible illness, its roots, and healing paths. It is essential reading for those seeking to understand recovery from trauma and provides hope for sufferers, their families, and healthcare providers.
