Interesting stuff, but the book comes across as a collection of essays that the author has only invested minimal time to integrate. As a result, for example, the basics of the Polyvagal Theory are reiterated over and over again throughout the book.
Dit boek bundelt voor het eerst het werk van neurofysioloog Stephen W. Porges. Zijn ‘polyvagale theorie’ heeft implicaties voor de behandeling van angsten, depressies, trauma’s en autisme. Deze theorie levert onder meer nieuwe inzichten in de manier waarop ons autonoom zenuwstelsel onbewust tussenbeide komt als het gaat om maatschappelijke betrokkenheid, vertrouwen en intimiteit.
