I love the book; I found it immensely useful personally for trauma.

I have discussed the book with various medical authorities. Not a single one disagreed or was negative towards it.

That is indicative of cherry picking the authorities you chose to discuss it with, since the problems with this book and the theories behind it are both well-known and well-documented. Start here:
