Description
Using the experiences of her patients along with the biographical stories of literary giants such as Virginia Woolf, Franz Kafka, and Marcel Proust, world-renowned psychologist Alice Miller shows how a child’s humiliation, impotence, and bottled rage will manifest themselves as adult illness-be it cancer, stroke, or other debilitating diseases.
“Readers will learn how to confront the overt and covert traumas of their own
childhoods with the enlightened guidance of Alice Miller.”
-Philip Greven, Rutgers University, author of Spare the Child
“The Body Never Lies is the most recent volume in one of psychology’s most important collections.”
-Stephen Khamsi, PhD, author of Swords and Knives
“A provocation …. [AI ice Miller’s] visionary humanity leads the way into a new era, where the source of needless human suffering is movingly and powerfully recognized.”
-Barbara Rodgers, author of Screams of Childhood
