Description

Restoring connections between the public and private worlds, individuals and communities, and men and women is a central theme in this publication. A psychiatrist's approach highlights the link between the heroic suffering of men in war and political struggle, and the degraded suffering of women through rape, incest, and domestic violence.

The author identifies a fresh diagnostic category for those suffering from hidden traumas and proposes a recovery programme that favours a process of reintegration. This book offers a unique perspective on trauma and recovery, making it a valuable resource for those seeking to understand and address these complex issues.
