The Third Reich in the Unconscious: Transgenerational Transmission and Its Consequences examines the effects of the Holocaust on second-generation survivors and specifically describes how historical images and trauma are transferred. The authors reveal the many ways in which the psychological legacy of the Nazi regime manifests itself in subsequent generations and how psychopathology, if present, can assume a number of different forms. Among the detailed case histories and treatment considerations, the text provides insight for developing strategies that will tame and eventually prevent transgenerational transmission.

'At a time when there is an increasing threat to the security of the world and war is looming on the horizon, we can still find traces of the Third Reich in the unconscious of those who have been directly or indirectly affected by its evil. By analyzing the impact of war and destructiveness through the generations, the book is a most important contribution to the effort for their prevention in the future.' - Ilany Kogan, Psychoanalyst and Training Analyst of the Israel Psychoanalytic Association 'In spite of the unspeakable and unthinkable subject of this book, the authors have written hopefully, and with a deep faith in peoples' wisdom and courage, that these malignancies can be ameliorated with the insights of psychoanalysis so that our children can be healthier and especially wiser to take action to prevent ongoing and worldwide needless tragedies, misery and genocide.' - Stuart W. Twemlow, M.D., Faculty, Department of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School  Be the first to write a customer review
