ISBN10: 0374522693, ISBN13: 9780374522698, [publisher: Farrar, Straus & Giroux Inc, New York] Softcover Paperback. For Your Own Good, the contemporary classic exploring the serious if not gravely dangerous consequences parental cruelty can bring to bear on children everywhere, is one of the central works by Alice Miller, the celebrated Swiss psychoanalyst. With her typically lucid, strong, and poetic language, Miller investigates the personal stories and case histories of various self-destructive and/or violent individuals to expand on her theories about the long-term affects of abusive child-rearing. Her conclusions--on what sort of parenting can create a drug addict, or a murderer, or a Hitler--offer much insight, and make a good deal of sense, while also straying far from psychoanalytic dogma about human nature, which Miller vehemently rejects. This important study paints a shocking picture of the violent world--indeed, of the ever-more-violent world--that each generation helps to create when traditional upbringing, with its hidden cruelty, is perpetuated. The book also presents readers with useful solutions in this regard--namely, to resensitize the victimized child who has been trapped within the adult, and to unlock the emotional life that has been frozen in repression. An analysis of the roots of violence examines the impact of traditional child rearing practices on human violence in adulthood. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK ...

The covers are lightly worn, a small tear at the top of the spine, there are minor markings in the text and a previous owner's name inside. "In the clear, strong, poetic language that distinguished her first book, the highly acclaimed Prisoners of Childhood: the Drama of the Gifted Child, Alice Miller has written a ground-breaking study of the origins of violence. So convincingly does she show how harmful and cruel are the principles ruling our traditional upbringing that she even unexpectedly found confirmation from a church-oriented reviewer". Translated by Hildegarde Hannum & Hunter Hannum. (Psychology, Child Rearing, Childhood, Children, Ideas, Psychoanalysis, Psychology, Social Behavior, Violence).
