If you write a book, can you have a section on the types of attachment that contribute, the emotional dysregulation that goes along, and ...yes indeed, a ton of information is needed about that sneaky phenomenon called dissociation.. and also the inter-generational mechanisms of transmission because these interrelated components of amassing a high ACE Score (oh and please include how psyche drugs can never take all these physiological and biological adaptations away with a chapter on psychiatric re-traumatization - and how it can be dehumanizing, cold and can easily lead the unaware trauma survivor away from self discovery and healing) are a lot more common than many of us know. 

It would also be great if some synopsis of the infant work (Ed Tronick, Beatrice BeeBe, Daniel Stern) were included and the work on the development  of personality problems too - those start in infancy and are highly related... 

I liked Peter Fonagy - Affect Regulation, Mentalization and the Development of Self

Brown and Elliott Attachment Disturbances in Adults

Frank Putnam  “Dissociation in Children and Adolescents” and  “ The Way We Are: How States of Mind Influence Our Identities, Personality and Potential for Change“

Beatrice BeeBe “The Mother-Infant Interaction Picture Book Origins of Attachment” 

Winnecott “Thinking about Children” 

Masterson “The Narcissistic and Borderline Disorders”

Van der Hart “The Haunted Self”

Pat Crittenden “Raising Kids” 

Schore “Affect Regulation and the Origin of Self” and “Right Brain Psychotherapy”

Daniel Stern “The Interpersonal world of the Infant.”

Seburn Fisher “Neurofeedback in the Treatment of Developmental Trauma”

and even taking a look at Robert Whitaker “Anatomy of an Epidemic”

and Gould “Wonderful Life, The Burgess Shale and the Nature of History”
