Psychological trauma is a multifaceted phenomenon with extensive involvement of biochemical and neurological changes. This book originated on the basis of clinical observations and the authors believe that "trauma" is the region in which "psych" and "soma" meet each other and integrate, becoming a single entity. In this text, the authors attempt to integrate the psychosocial and bio-neuro-endocrine aspects of human experience, including trauma. Chapter 1 provides a psychobiological perspective of incest, and sexual abuse, and considers the stages of and reactions to incest that trauma clients

Presque 10 ans se sont écoulés depuis la première édition de ce livre. Entre-temps, une révolution s'est produite, avec les mouvements #MeToo, puis #MeTooInceste, qui ont libéré et légitimé la parole des victimes de violences sexuelles. Ces mouvements, associés à nos combats acharnés, ont permis une prise de conscience inédite de l'ampleur et de la gravité des violences sexuelles que subissent principalement les femmes et les personnes les plus vulnérables, et ce dès leur plus jeune âge. Pourtant, les chiffres des violences sexuelles ne baissent pas, l'impunité s'aggrave, et la plupart des victimes de violences sexuelles restent toujours abandonnées, privées de protection, de soins spécifiques, de justice et de réparations. Le déni, la loi du silence et la culture du viol continuent de régner. Or, si on souhaite que le monde soit enfin plus solidaire et plus juste pour les victimes de ces graves violations des droits humains, que la vérité sur ces crimes et délits sexuels ne soit plus niée, la prise en compte du psychotraumatisme est un préalable. Reconnaître le psychotraumatisme comme la conséquence logique et universelle des violences est une priorité absolue. Informer le grand public et former tous les professionnels sur ses mécanismes (la sidération, la dissociation, la mémoire traumatique), sur ses lourdes répercussions sur la santé et la vie des victimes, et sur les soins efficaces à leur donner, permettra de leur éviter des pertes de chances considérables, et de leur rendre justice. C'est le combat que je mène avec le Dr Denis Mukwege, prix Nobel de la paix 2018, et ce que ce livre s'emploie à faire.
