这本由心理学家多萝西•P•霍林格撰写的原创新书,采用人本主义和生理学的方法来描述悲伤对丧亲者的影响。霍林格从文学、音乐、诗歌、古生物学、个人经验、回忆录和病人叙述提取例子,描述了丧亲者的大脑、心脏和身体中发生的事情。读者们将了解到亲人去世后的悲痛是怎样的:语言和清晰的思维如何变得难以捉摸,为什么生活会感到空虚,为什么悲痛会如此持久地涌动和起伏,为什么丧亲者会哭泣。这本文学书立足于科学,向丧亲者展示了如何度过悲伤,以及以更深层次、多维度的方式理解悲伤如如何有助于平息这种悲伤,让生命重新充满欢乐。An original, authoritative guide to the impact of grief on the brain, the heart, and the body of the bereavedGrief happens to everyone. Universal and enveloping, grief cannot be ignored or denied. This original new book by psychologist Dorothy P. Holinger uses humanistic and physiological approaches to describe grief’s impact on the bereaved. Taking examples from literature, music, poetry, paleoarchaeology, personal experience, memoirs, and patient narratives, Holinger describes what happens in the brain, the heart, and the body of the bereaved. Readers will learn what grief is like after a loved one dies: how language and clarity of thought become elusive, why life feels empty, why grief surges and ebbs so persistently, and why the bereaved cry. Resting on a scientific foundation, this literary book shows the bereaved how to move through the grieving process and how understanding grief in deeper, more multidimensional ways can help quell this sorrow and allow life to be lived again with joy.
