«This book is both thought provoking and morally challenging. Our heritage of uninvited ghosts that haunt our personal, cultural, and socio-political histories where traumatic memories are repressed yet transmitted to subsequent generations is brought home as each chapter unfolds with vivid accounts of unbearable inhumanity and inspiring threads of human recognition. The ghosts of collective trauma, unwanted social memory and inconvenient truth are everywhere. This book is essential reading to any scholar, social theorist, psychoanalyst or psychotherapist who recognises that globally more and more individuals are being forced by birth or citizenship to have to deal with human violations committed in their name.»

«A truly excellent and impressive collection for quality and range, this book brings to light, and brings light to, many dark events in human history. Its near-global set of case studies and intergenerational dimension makes this a must read for anyone interested in understanding the historical, psychological and socio-political dimensions of trauma.»

«This is a collection of essays that make important historical events come alive in a direct and vivid manner through the lens of trauma. A vast reach of geographical spaces and historical moments are captured, not only from a therapeutic perspective, but also through other ways of engaging trauma, namely art therapy, critical history, and many other discursive positions. This unusual approach makes this volume so special.»
