Books by Ira Brenner

This book takes a deeper look into the darker side of the human condition by examining the psyches of those who have been victims or survivors of heinous acts perpetrated by others. From the "personal Holocaust" of sexual abuse in the family, to the genocidal persecution during "the" Holocaust, and from the shared national horror of September 11.

Injured Men is a unique casebook of clinical material pertaining to men who have sustained trauma. Richly illustrated with both brief and extensively detailed analytic case reports, this book describes the manifestations of such phenomena as physical and sexual abuse, unresolved grief, genocidal persecution, and combat.
