Before and After Loss: A Neurologist’s Perspective on Loss, Grief, and Our Brain Audiobook (Free)

In Before and After Loss, Dr. Lisa M. Shulman, a neurologist, represents a personal tale of loss and her trip to understand the research behind the mind-altering connection with grief. Component memoir, part innovative nonfiction, part account of scientific breakthrough, this moving reserve combines Shulman’s perspectives as an expert in brain science and an enthusiastic observer of behavior with her experience like a clinician, a caregiver, and a widow.

Shedding light over the detach between conventional wisdom about loss and rising knowledge within the neuroscience of emotional trauma as the cause of brain injury, Shulman explores not merely the experience but also the science and psychology of loss. Drawing on the latest research about grief and its effects, she explains what scientists know about how the brain, mind, and body react and heal pursuing traumatic loss. She also traces the interface between the experience of profound loss as well as the search for psychological restoration.
