"To treat, even to cure, is not always to heal." In this expansive cultural history of the treatment and healing of suffering, Kay Jamison writes about what makes an effective healer, and the role of imagination and memory in the regeneration of the mind. From the trauma of the bloodiest battlefields of the twentieth century to her own experience with bipolar disease, Jamison demonstrates how extraordinary psychotherapy can be when administered properly and explores the clinical reality that healing the mind requires, for both doctor and patient. She draws on the cases of W.H.R. Rivers, the renowned doctor who treated shell-shocked WWI soldiers, on the long history of physical treatments for mental distress and the ancient role of religion and myth in healing, and she looks at the heroic figures in our artistic culture who have healed us as a people, such as Paul Robeson. Fires in the Dark is a beautiful meditation on the quest and adventure of true healing"--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult New Books 616.8914 Ja Checked out 06/27/2024 Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 616.8914 Ja Checked out 06/28/2024 Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 616.8914 Jamison Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 616.8914 Ja Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Liliha Public Library Adult Nonfiction 616.8914 Ja Checked out 06/22/2024 Add Copy to MyList Waipahu Public Library Adult Nonfiction 616.8914 Ja Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
