In 2007, Shaili Jain was a psychiatrist comfortably ensconced in private practice in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. During a spring road trip with her Father, she stumbled upon the truth of what happened to his family during the 1947 Partition of India. Jain’s family legacy was one of tragic loss and terror but it had been buried for decades. Her Father’s testimony would eventually spur her on a new career path committed to advancing the science of psychological trauma and unlocking the secrets of what fosters human resilience in the aftermath of unspeakable traumas. Today, Dr. Jain serves as a PTSD specialist at one of America’s top VA hospitals, is a trauma scientist at the National Center for PTSD and a Stanford Professor. In The Unspeakable Mind, she paints a textured portrait of PTSD, drawing on the two decades she has spent caring for survivors of child abuse, rape, intimate partner violence, life-threatening accidents, and war. She interweaves these stories with her own family history of trauma suffered during the 1947 Partition of India, cutting edge neuroscience and conversations with top scientists in the field. The Unspeakable Mind offers the reader a riveting glimpse into the life of a doctor through the lens of PTSD and journeys far beyond the horrors of war to illuminate why traumatic stress is an inescapable part of all our lives.
