Recenzje

"While Mezzalira’s book is only 156 pages, it is an extensive compilation and summary of theory and research, past and present, on time and trauma. She includes perspectives from philosophy (especially phenomenology), psychoanalysis, neuroscience, and cognitive science. This book explores many, many useful concepts and research findings and is a valuable reference source for clinicians and researchers."
