It's a lesson Oprah learned as a child being raised by an abusive grandmother. She developed 'a keen sense of when trouble was brewing'--when she would be subjected to 'whuppings' at times so brutal, the welts left behind would bleed through her clothing. \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs a result of this and other abuse she suffered, Oprah has had a lifelong interest in understanding and overcoming the profound effects of early trauma--and helping others do the same. \n\u003cb\u003eNow, she's teamed up with neuroscientist and child trauma expert Bruce Perry, MD, PhD, on this essential book. Revealing, intimate, and educational, it's a testament to the authors' wish for readers to come to grips with, and let go of, the past--and to move forward into 'post-traumatic wisdom.'\"\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e--Leigh Haber, \n\u003ci\u003eO Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher Marketing\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eONE MILLION COPIES SOLD\u003cbr\u003e#1 \u003ci\u003eNEW YORK TIMES \u003c\/i\u003eBESTSELLER \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eOur earliest experiences shape our lives far down the road, and \u003ci\u003eWhat Happened to You?\u003c\/i\u003e provides powerful scientific and emotional insights into the behavioral patterns so many of us struggle to understand.\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ci\u003e\"Through this lens we can build a renewed sense of personal self-worth and ultimately recalibrate our responses to circumstances, situations, and relationships.
