How does incest in childhood affect personality development in adulthood? What conditions in the family encourage incestuous situations? What are typical characteristics of incestuous fathers? Until the publication of this book, many questions remained about the effects of incest in childhood on psychological functioning in later life. In this groundbreaking work, Meiselman examines all types of incestuous behavior and offers practical recommendations for detecting incest occurrences, handling cases, assessing individual and family incest problems, and making effective treatment interventions. "I can wholeheartedly recommend it to any professional who deals with patients, not only as the most comprehensive work available on this subject, but as a model of its kind".--Journal of Marital and Family Therapy.

some great info,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Incest: A Psychological Study of Causes and Effects with Treatment Recommendations (Jossey Bass Social and Behavioral Science Series) (Paperback)
The book Incest opened new information to me on this subject. This is a great book and should be on every professionals shelf who deals with this painful subject. It is very hard to address incest as it is a massive problem with few avenues of help. Professionals and some survivors alike should read this cover to cover along with books Father Daughter Incest and My Fathers House. Please spend the time as the information and its presantation is well worth it.
