About this book

The ground-breaking book "Childhood Disrupted: How Your Biography Becomes Your Biology, and How You Can Heal" by Donna Jackson Nakazawa examines the connection between adult illnesses and Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs).

Nakazawa explores how emotional trauma experienced as a kid not only molds our emotional selves as adults but also has a significant impact on our longevity, physical health, and general well-being. Parental conflict, divorce, bereavement, bullying, and having parents who are mentally ill, drunk, or too judgmental of us can all leave long-lasting "fingerprints" on our brains.

About the author

Donna Jackson Nakazawa

Nakazawa writes about the biology of childhood adversity: the finding that difficult early experience shows up decades later in inflammation, autoimmune disease and depression, not as a metaphor but as a measurable change. Childhood Disrupted works through the adverse childhood experiences research and what can be done afterwards.
