Why read it?
1 author picked Studies in Hysteria as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Why should I read a book written by two neurologists from the end of the 19th century? It is very simple. I love this book because it is the first description and extended explanation of female traumas.

From Jasna's list on understanding trauma and how to heal it.
