Reviews

'One of the most important psychiatric works to be published since Freud.' New York Times; 'The very best book on the relationship between sexual abuse and political power.' Susie Orbach, Guardian; 'Cogently argued and well illustrated with relevant case material...it sets abuse of whatever kind in its wider social context. This book will be of benefit to all, either practitioners or supervisors, who grapple with the implications of work with survivors.' Sue Clement-Jewery, Relate
