  • Summary

  • Professor and psychiatrist Judith Herman discusses the history and diagnostics of gender-based violence and incest. The leading world expert on sexual trauma, Herman talks about the ways in which the field has and hasn't changed since the women's liberation movement, her coinage of complex PTSD as a diagnostic category, the parallels between survivors of warfare and sexual trauma, the "moral community" that proper healing requires, and the single thing that surprised her most throughout her long clinical career. Herman's latest book, Truth and Repair: How Trauma Survivors Envision Justice, is out now.


    Hosted by Joelle M. Abi-Rached, MD PhD, and edited by Alexandre Benoit at the Harvard Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study.
