520 "The lasting effects of individual trauma are now widely
recognized. But what of the consequences of extreme trauma
on an entire ethnic group? New research in neuroscience
and clinical psychology demonstrates that even when they
are hidden, trauma histories--from persecution and
deportation to the horrors of the Holocaust--leave
imprints on the minds and bodies of future generations.
Wounds Into Wisdom makes a compelling case that trauma
legacies can be transformed and healed. Fusing
contemporary neuroscience, psychology, and ancient Jewish
wisdom and values, this work provides a roadmap for Jews,
and all individuals and groups with trauma history, who
wish to seize the power to change their lives. Gripping
case studies and interviews with trauma survivors and
their descendants demonstrate what Viktor Frankl called,
"the uniquely human potential to transform personal
tragedy into triumph." From them we learn the many ways
that past trauma shapes the present--from the timid young
woman who discovers she has been repeating her lost
grandmother's exact words, to the Israeli war hero who has
endured decades of terrifying nightmares. From these
moving testimonies Firestone distills seven principles,
rich in Jewish wisdom, that mark the way to new freedom.
Building on the work of acclaimed traumatologists such as
Drs. Rachel Yehuda, Bessel van der Kolk, and Yael Danieli,
Firestone shows how people can transform the residual
effects of their families' painful pasts and change their
long-term futures. The book provides a template for people
everywhere to emerge from the wreckage of their tragedies
and reshape their destinies. Relevant not only to the
tragic past, but to the world of turmoil and displacement
we live in today, Wounds into Wisdom is an essential book
for our times"--|cProvided by publisher.
