The New Wounded

More about the book

Exploring the intersection of psychoanalysis and contemporary neurobiology, this book delves into the experiences of brain lesion patients, referred to as the "new wounded." It confronts traditional views on trauma and psychic wounds, arguing for a reevaluation of the brain as integral to psychic life rather than a separate entity. Through this philosophical lens, the work challenges existing paradigms and highlights the complexities of trauma in relation to both neurological and psychological dimensions.
