Not my first choice by stacyann (portland oregon)  2 Stars
September 12, 2009
Very short and while the information is valid, it would have been the same had I just done a little research on the internet. Not worth the price.

Lacks empathy by D M 2 Stars
October 10, 2008
This book might have as well been called "Sexual abuse guide for dummies". Author's intention might have been good, providing the basics for "beginners" but how can one simplify such horrors as child sexual abuse? There is no deeper understanding in this book of what this experience can do to a person. A title of one chapter reads "Ok, I believe it, now what?". I cannot imagine anyone adopting such tone, whether having gone through it or knowing someone who did.
Even though I don't like it, I am glad to see that it did help many people. But if you feel repelled by the style of this book as me, check the Secret survivors by E. Sue Blume. Amazingly intelligent and empathicly written.

enlighteling by P. Bridges-Fila (Los Angeles, CA)  4 Stars
October 10, 2008
This was recommended by my new therapist with good reason, It applies to a large group of people. I have found an easier and more digest-able way to view the way I was raised due to this read. I never realized that being ignored and being raged at was a form of abuse. I appreciate the education this simple book has to offer. I have never been one for the victim-y or poor me stuff, this gave me some real perspective.

Hard to find book; great service here!! THANKS!! by Michael Perrin (Odessa, TX United States)  5 Stars
July 24, 2008
The author has a wealth of experience working with children. The book is easy to read. It is really helpful and each page is a thought provoker. Better is read slower so the reader has plenty of reflective time. This book and the author will be classics in the child abuse and treatment category. Self-help or in therapy, the book and its author are right on.
