*sigh* I'm not looking to start a fight, and I shouldn't have phrased my earlier comment so personally. To put it in less inflammatory terms: many scientists who study memory dispute van der Kolk's views about how traumatic memory works.
Anyhow, if having read the book you have any further interest, I can supply journal articles on the subject of traumatic memory, and also there are at least a couple of (IMO) good histories of the memory wars. (There may be more recent ones than those I've read.)
