Looks at the traumatic effects of genocidal persecution on the child's psychic structure and on development through the life cycle. Through case vignettes and life histories, the book offers historical information on the Holocaust itself, the overall plight of children, superego development and the role often played by transitional phenomena in mastering the attendant trauma and object loss.
