'A collection of essays by a psychoanalyst who practices in a country whose language is not familiar to the majority of readers in the Anglo-Saxon world is to be heartily welcomed - all the more so when the author is as experienced and worldly as Dr Nissim Momigliano, who came into psychoanalysis following the reorganization in the aftermath of the Second World War. She has continued to develop her own ideas - particularly on the issues of technique and practice. In this volume she proposes to tell readers about her own way of working, concentrating on the setting in which analysts and patients work, and the teaching of those who wish to learn about the method. 'This is a volume that will be greatly appreciated by psychotherapists and psychoanalysts, as well as by those who are still in the throes of aquiring knowledge and skills in the psychological field'.- Adam Limentani (amazon)

In February 1944 he and his best friends, including Luciana Nissim, were betrayed and deported to Auschwitz, where, of the 650 who made the train journey, only 18 survived. Of those not gassed immediately, the average survival time was three months. Levi “lived” in the camp for 11 months, in part because his lifelong friend Alberto Dalla Volta immediately announced that Levi was an expert in chemistry (Angier, 2002), in part because the civilian worker Lorenzo Perrone, after whom Levi later named his son, smuggled him an extra ration of soup each day. Too ill to go on the infamous “death march” at the end of the war, he and a few others were left behind and found by the Russians. After his liberation it took him nearly ten months to reach home, where few even recognized him.
