Holocaust Survivors and Immigrants: Late Life Adaptations (Springer Series on Stress and Coping)

By Zev Harel, Eva Kahana, Boaz Kahana

Book Overview

Based on a unique research study, this volume examines the later life development of Holocaust survivors from Israel and the US. Through systematic interviews, the authors - noted researchers and clinicians - collected data about the lives of these survivors and how they compared to peers who did not share this experience. The result is a multi-faceted view of their subject with an understanding of the individual, society, and the interaction of the two, tempered by the authors' own Holocaust experiences.
