The Truth Will Set You Free

Returning to the themes of her classic The Drama of the Gifted Child, the famed psychoanalyst examines the consequences of cruelty to children and offers ways we can heal our early psychic wounds. . More than twenty years ago, a little-known Swiss psychoanalyst wrote a book that changed the way many people viewed themselves and their world. In simple but powerful prose, the deeply moving The Drama of the Gifted Child showed how parents unconsciously form and deform the emotional lives of their children. Alice Miller's stories about the roots of suffering in childhood resonated with readers everywhere, and her book soon achieved cult status and became a backlist bestseller. In The Truth Will Set You Free Miller returns to the intensely personal tone and themes of her best-loved work. Only by embracing the truth of our past histories can any of us hope to be free of pain in the present, she argues. Miller's vivid true stories reveal the perils of early-childhood mistreatment and the dangers of mindless obedience to parental will. Drawing on the latest research on brain development, she shows how spanking and humiliation produce dangerous levels of denial. This denial, necessary for the child's survival, leads to emotional blindness and finally to mental barriers that cut off awareness and the ability to learn new ways of acting. If this cycle repeats itself, the grown child will perpetrate the same abuse on later generations, warns Miller-a message vitally important, especially given the increasing popularity of programs like Tough Love and of child disciplinarians like James Dobson and other religion-driven psychologists. The Truth Will Set You Free will provoke and inform all readers who want to know Alice Miller's latest thinking on this important subject.

Warning: Manie van der Westhuizen © 15th January 2010 THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE will change your life once you know that the TRUTH is none other than JESUS himself, for He is the Farther thereof. Please test yourself by answering the follow questions and if you know all the answers, only then can you ignore this book. 1 Which dead man was authorized by God to raise another man from the dead? 2 Give me the date (Day, Month and Year) the Floodwaters came on the earth? 3 Give me the date (Day, Month and Year) the water had dried up from the earth? 4 Give me the name of the first man who died after the Floodwaters came on the earth? 5 Give me the date (Year only) this man was born? 6 Give me the date (Year only) this man died? 7 How many years after the Floodwaters came on the earth, this man has died? 8 Who was the first man who died of a heart attack? 9 What causes his heart attack? 10 Why only, was he buried seventeen years after he died of a heart attack? 11 Who was the first man ever raised from the dead? 12 Described to me the Joshua Formula? 13 Who taught you the answers to these questions? You can counter question me with the following question; “Is that really important?” I have a surprise for you; it was important for God therefore he recorded it in his word, The Bible. Sadly to say in fifty years of my life I founded only three persons who knew the answer to question 1 and not a single person who knew the answers to questions 2 to 12. Therefore I do not expect you to know the answers, even if you are a Professor.
