Review

Rare and compelling in its compassion and its unassuming eloquence...her examples are so vivid and so ordinary they touch the hurt child in us all (NEW YORK MAGAZINE)

Synopsis

Alice Miller believes that violence and cruelty in society have their roots in conventional child rearing and in education which can create a prison out of childhood. In this new edition, which has been revised in light of her renunciation of psychoanalysis, she describes how her discoveries can help to create a freedom from this prison. She explains, with many examples, how it is possible to recover lost feelings and repressed history, resulting in a new, healthy beginning - both for adults and their children. This book aims to reclaim the reader's life by discovering the reader's crucial needs and own truth.
