In Memory of Childhood Trauma, Ms. Reviere discusses current theory and data from cognitive, developmental, clinical and neuropsychology that bears on remembering, forgetting and the possibility of recovering memories of early traumatic experiences. The arguments throughout are articulate and balanced. Ms. Reviere has a real talent for presenting complex ideas clearly and bringing together findings from diverse areas in a comprehensive and comprehensible way. This book will be invaluable for researchers and clinicians in providing an empirically grounded integrated framework for understanding memory of childhood trauma. - Robyn Fivush, Ph.D., Emory University This book provides a much-needed resource - a review and synthesis of the memory literature as it pertains to childhood trauma. Author Susan Reviere draws from this literature to provide a perspective on how information about human memory processes must be integrated into psychotherapy for post-traumatic conditions and how memory research must expand to encompass traumatic events. Memory of Childhood Trauma is a must-read for clinicians working with adult clients struggling with issues of delayed/repressed memory of childhood trauma. - Christine A. Courtois, Ph.D., Psychologist, Private practice; Clinical Director, The Center: Post-Traumatic and Dissociative Disorder Program, The Psychiatric Institute of Washington, Washington, DC.
