New Library of Psychoanalysis Counter-Time: Temporality of Thought and History in Clinical Practice and Literature, (Paperback)

<p>This book explores how trauma affects our experience of time, how<br>that experience may not be linear, and how we may experience<br>"counter-time" - a disruption or arrest of time's flow and a perpetual<br>return to the time of trauma.</p><p>Counter-Time explores this phenomenon in clinical practice and in<br>examples from literature and history, including mass trauma such as<br>genocide. Survivors of trauma can be helped to move beyond their<br>experience by drawing on their own cultural resources, helping them<br>to use "counter-time" as a means of release instead of a repeated<br>traumatic symptom.</p><p>With rich clinical detail and clear, accessible writing, this book is<br>essential reading for all psychoanalysts and psychotherapists working<br>with trauma.</p>
