History Social Research

“This unique book pushes us to rethink notions of time, place and selfhood that we Moderns take for granted. Nigel Williams takes full advantage of his novel location at the intersection of psychotherapy, social theory and psycho-social research to explore inter and transgenerational experiences of the loss and recovery of memory. Drawing on clinical case studies, biographical interviews, dream workshops and his own subjectivity he writes beautifully about the sometimes barely tangible traces of historical traumas within intergenerational and cultural dynamics.”
