New York Times <br> [T]he moral of Dr. Clancy's story is clear: science should represent truth, not wishful thinking. When good data fly in the face of beloved theory, the theory has to go...Dr. Clancy writes with the precision and patient repetition of a good teacher on complicated terrain. Her prose could not be clearer, and her points are restated many, many times over. <br>Salon.com<br> The Trauma Myth is a nuanced and muscular work that takes a surprisingly straightforward approach to a tough subject matter. <br> Publishers Weekly <br> [A] nuanced psychological study. <br>Carol Tavris, Ph.D., coauthor of Mistakes Were Made (But Not by Me) <br> With her usual clarity of prose and reasoning, Susan Clancy has written a calm and persuasive assessment of a volatile subject. I highly recommend this book for anyone with a personal or professional interest in child abuse--which should be all of us. <br>Paul McHugh, University Distinguished Service Professor of Psychiatry
