A new sequel to The Drama of Being a Child. To eliminate her own repression, Alice Miller sought a therapy that would allow the injured child within the adult to find its own language. She found a method that withstood her scepticism and her dislike of dogma and salvational ideologies, enabling her to resolve the consequences of her own childhood traumas. Now she shares her knowledge with us. She believes that we can all, given sufficient motivation and instructions, feel, and free, the banished child within us and, by letting that child speak, condemn the abuse and achieve liberation. The author also wrote For Your Own Good, The Untouched Key: Tracing Childhood Trauma in Creativity and Destructiveness.
