{"product_id":"from-pain-to-violence","title":"From Pain to Violence","description":"Violence is all around us creating a climate of insecurity and terror but, despite its widespread prevalence, we remain unclear about its causes. \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFelicity de Zulueta\u003c\/b\u003e challenges the view that we are innately violent and argues that violence is a preventable condition that usually begins at home. Here she explores how pain, particularly the pain of humiliation, resulting from either childhood abuse or subsequent adult traumatisation, can lead to violence. For the second edition, this important text has been fully updated and now includes a valuable analysis of terrorism. Using vivid clinical vignettes to bring theoretical arguments to life, this edition explores key areas such as:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003elatest research on attachment and its relationship to PTSD and violence\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ecurrent neuro-psychological research and the latest treatments of PTSD\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ecross-cultural issues, racism and gender inequality\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ethe psycho-social basis of professional abuse, torture and genocide\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ethe psycho-social basis of modern fundamentalism and terrorism\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eissues of prevention, resilience and altruism.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eFrom Pain to Violence\u003c\/i\u003e skilfully integrates findings across many different disciplines to provide an understanding of why ordinary people can become violent.
