Synopsis "Resilience: How Your Inner Strength can set you Free From the Past (in English)"

"Cyrulink has healed people and countries." (The Times, London) Renowned French neuropsychiatrist and psychoanalyst Boris Cyrulnik's parents were deported to a concentration camp during the Second World War. They never returned. This early personal trauma at the age of five led Cyrulnik to his life's work helping individuals and countries come to terms with their pasts and forge ahead to create positive futures. It is his firm belief that trauma does not equal destiny-that, rather, we can find strength in the face of pain. Drawing on years of experience working around the globe with children who have been abused, orphaned, fought in wars and escaped genocide, Cyrulnik here tells many amazing and moving stories of individuals whose experiences prove that suffering, however appalling, can be the making of somebody rather than their destruction. This inspiring book teaches us that we can not only survive in the shadow of adversity-we can thrive.

Boris Cyrulnik nació en Burdeos en 1937 en el seno de una familia judía de origen ruso. Sus padres fueron víctimas del nazismo, y murieron en un campo de concentración cuando él todavía era un niño. Esta experiencia traumática lo impulsó a convertirse en neuropsiquiatra y ahondar en el estudio de los traumas infantiles. Es autor de obras de gran éxito, entre las que se destaca Los patitos feos. Actualmente dirige un equipo de investigación en el hospital de Tolón y es director de estudios en la universidad de esa misma ciudad.
