5.0 out of 5 stars Very important book!, May 9, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: First Do No Harm: The Sexual Abuse Industry (Paperback)

This book is very important because it shows us how this hysteria over child sexual abuse came to be and how it effects millions of innocent people. Felicity was part of that industry back in the early days when it was just starting to form. But when she saw that the change was happening from helping the real victims of sexual abuse to punishing the perpetrator, she knew that the time was come to leave that job. Table of contents:1.
