The Body Keeps the Score

By Bessel van der Kolk

An influential examination of how traumatic experiences can affect the brain, body, relationships, and sense of self. Drawing on decades of clinical work, van der Kolk discusses the development of trauma treatment and a range of approaches to recovery.

Why we carry it: Riders talk openly about machines and rarely enough about what they carry inside. Understanding trauma can be part of finding a way forward.
