SUMMARY:June Book Club
DESCRIPTION:he Body Keeps the Score was well-received\, including a starred review from Library Journal.[12] Reviewing the book for New Scientist magazine\, Shaoni Bhattacharya wrote that “[p]acked with science and human stories\, the book is an intense read that can get technical. Stay with it\, though: van der Kolk has a lot to say\, and the struggle and resilience of his patients is very moving.”[2] \nIn 2019\, The Body Keeps the Score was ranked second in the science category of The New York Times Best Seller list.[13] As of July 2021\, the book had spent more than 141 weeks on the New York Times Bestseller List for nonfiction\, with 27 of those weeks spent in the No. 1 position.[7] \nBy the end of October 2023\, The Body Keeps the Score had spent 153 weeks (nearly 3 years) on Amazon’s bestseller list.[14] \nIn his 2005 Canadian Journal of Psychiatry article psychologist Richard McNally described the reasoning of Kolk’s 1994 article “The Body Keeps the Score” as “mistaken”\, and his theory as “plague[d]” by “[c]onceptual and empirical problems.” McNally describes “recovered memory therapy\,” inspired by Kolk’s approach\, as “arguably the most serious catastrophe to strike the mental health field since the lobotomy era”.[3] McNally’s 2003 book Remembering Trauma gave a detailed critique (pp. 177-82) of Kolk’s article\, concluding Kolk’s theory was one “in search of a phenomenon”.[15] \nThe book received a negative review in the Washington Post in 2023 for promoting “uncertain science”.[5] \nA 2023 editorial published in Research on Social Work Practice criticized the book for promoting treatments that have limited to no evidence. It states that van der Kolk and Levine “regularly ignore\, misrepresent\, and sometimes veer into or close to pseudoscience when it comes to the scientific knowledge base of PTSD treatment”.[4] \nIn a 2024 Mother Jones article\, author and journalist Emi Nietfeld criticized the book\, claiming the book “stigmatizes survivors\, blames victims\, and depoliticizes violence.”[16] She reached out to multiple researchers of the original research the book cites for comments\, and reported multiple researchers said The Body Keeps the Score distorted their research. The evidence the book presents regarding how trauma is “remembered” by the body is also weak. She also illustrates the book lacks considerations for broader social and political factors of violence and trauma.[16] \nA 2024 FT article said “In recent years\, his 2014 masterwork The Body Keeps the Score has become an improbable sensation. Buoyed by a groundswell of popular interest in trauma and psychology in the wake of the pandemic\, the dense\, scientifically rigorous text has become a latent\, runaway success\, spending nearly 300 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list.”[17]
