This book lifts the veil on the mysteries that arise in a family as a result of trauma and are carefully guarded by its members. The reasons for the emergence of family secrets, their transformation throughout the family's life, and the impact on future generations reveal the monstrous and destructive consequences of secrets for the psyche of descendants: the breakdown of bonds between loved ones, diffusion of identity, serious illnesses, and decreased vitality. The most common secrets related to extramarital relationships, illnesses, deaths, money, incest, war, and adoptions are described. The book is illustrated with numerous examples from the author's more than 30 years of practice. The clinical illustrations presented describe both the mechanisms of how secrets influence family life and specific ways of providing psychological assistance. It is addressed to a wide audience - psychologists, psychotherapists, doctors, educators, representatives of socio-economic professions, and anyone interested in family issues, family history, family myths, and family secrets. 2nd edition, revised.
