Italian Psychology and Jewish Emigration Under Fascism: From Florence to Jerusalem and New York
ISBN: 9781137306555 / Angielski / Twarda / 275 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Academics and young scholars were persecuted because they were antifascist or Jews and the story of Italian displaced scholars is still an embarrassing one. The book follows scholars who emigrated to the United States, such as psychologist Renata...
