Más información sobre el libro
In 1945, researchers began examining the psychological effects of the Hiroshima bombing, leading to a trans-Pacific network focused on understanding survivors' experiences. Ran Zwigenberg highlights the differing interpretations of trauma among researchers and victims, revealing that early studies often overlooked emotional suffering due to Cold War influences. He argues that the concept of trauma, particularly PTSD, may not apply universally, as cultural contexts shape the understanding of suffering. The book delves into the historical and scientific constraints affecting both researchers and victims.
