There's some interesting things this book has to say, but overall I just found it very dry. It was also very repetitive. I was mostly unimpressed by it.

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.
