Author: Maryanna Eckberg
ISBN: Victims of Cruelty
From the Publisher:

"In this major new work on body-oriented psychotherapy, Maryanna Eckberg makes the case for somatic treatment for individuals suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). In describing this therapeutic approach, she incorporates events of historical or national significance, including work with Vietnam vets (the first to be diagnosed with the disorder) and the Chowchilla kidnapping victims. Case studies from her professional efforts include work with victims of torture in El Salvador and her own experience as a victim of sexual and medical abuse. Victims of Cruelty offers a stinging rebuke of electroshock therapy, a political story of international medicine in Central America, and the demonstration of an increasingly influential form of treatment for PTSD. Included are an appendix of somatic interventions and a bibliography."
