Editorial Reviews

Review
"Wow! I am left with a head and heart full of information that exhibit the author's empathy, experience and ability to educate readers and human beings about the pervasive and often overwhelming implications of childhood sexual abuse."

Product Description
This text sheds light on a deeply hidden, yet powerfully debilitating, experience of childhood: sexual abuse. The author strives to accurately present information on the complex dynamics that have an impact on individuals, families, school environments and society at large. With these dynamics in mind, the author presents a collection of varied issues that will better prepare a child care professional in working with children who have been abused.

5.0 out of 5 stars The MarketPlace at Amazon.com exceeded my expectations., December 1, 2002

By A Customer

I recommend this book for beginning students in counseling, psychology, social work, and teaching to understand the psychological developmental effects that progresses through an individual's life after sexual abuse has taken place, especially if the child was very young at the time of the occurrence. It explained a lot of questions that I had and answered even more.

2.0 out of 5 stars Drier than burnt toast..., June 12, 2007

By	R. Corey "becwith" (Central Maine) - See all my reviews

This book was assigned reading for a college class. While there is a lot of valuable information in the book, you'll be hard put to get through it without going into a boredom coma while reading. Every time I started reading a paragraph, I would drift off in my head; The beach, the mountains, medieval torture chamber. Anywhere but in the book. I'm generally a fast and enthusiastic reader but this one took more effort than I could muster to get through it. I gave up and relied on the teacher's interpretation to learn the material.
