In this comprehensive book, Jill Salberg and Sue Grand delve into the intricate realm of transgenerational trauma, drawing upon attachment theory and the social-ethical turn of Relational psychoanalysis to provide a rich and insightful perspective. Transgenerational Trauma: A Contemporary Introduction serves as a groundbreaking exploration of the transmission of trauma across generations, shedding light on the profound impact that our forebears' experiences can have on our lives, bodies, and the broader world. The authors argue that often, we unwittingly perpetuate the social violence that we have encountered, perpetuating a cycle of harm. Through their unique approach, which integrates diverse psychoanalytic and psychodynamic theories, they examine the intricate connections between attachment, legacies of violence, and the role of witnessing in the healing process. Interwoven with clinical and personal stories, the book offers a profound understanding of the socio-historical positions that we inherit and navigate, highlighting the urgent need for healing both on an individual and collective level. Social justice concerns are woven throughout, emphasizing the importance of addressing systemic inequalities and promoting equity. Transgenerational Trauma: A Contemporary Introduction is a valuable resource for psychoanalysts, psychologists, mental health professionals, students, and scholars alike, offering a nuanced and comprehensive approach to this vital topic. It provides a deeper understanding of the complexities of trauma transmission, fosters empathy and compassion, and encourages a collective commitment to healing and transformation.
