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.
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.
