In this extraordinary book, Meera Atkinson explores the ways trauma reverberates over a lifetime, unearthing the traumatic roots of our social structures and our collective history. Using memoir as a touchstone, Atkinson contemplates the causes of trauma and the scars it leaves on modern society. She vibrantly captures her early life in 1970s and '80s Sydney and her self-reflection leads the reader on a journey that takes in neuroscience, pop psychology, feminist theory, and much more. Searing in its truthfulness and beauty, \u003ci\u003eTraumata\u003c\/i\u003e deals with issues of our time -intergenerational trauma, family violence, alcoholism, child abuse, patriarchy - forging a path of fearless enquiry through the complexity of humanity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Meera Atkinson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0702259896\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780702259890\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Queensland Pr (Australia)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.91w x 0.94d","brand":"Meera Atkinson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44809947939071,"sku":"9780702259890","price":23.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9595f97c-6677-4f71-9aa7-36bd98519c35.jpg?v=1707927911","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/traumata-meera-atkinson-9780702259890","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
