In the aftermath of the terror attack of October 7th, she worked with the victims - infants, children, parents and educational team.
""Personally, I am thrilled with Lidar's enthusiasm and her decision to leap into the task of researching the life and the works of my father, Erich Neumann. My father wrote in high German, and unfortunately a lot of his theories were lost in translation. Lidar took upon herself to explain his theories and make them more accessible. I believe that Lidar's book will encourage many to delve into the writings of my father and revive interest in his contribution to Analytical Psychology. For this, I thank her greatly."" -Prof. Micha Neumann
