Publisher Synopsis
"An excellent volume this is...I conclude that this volume sets a standard with which future work will be compared, and it will serve a huge heuristic function." (PsycCRITIQUES, 7/22/09) "An excellent volume this is, but it is also a disturbing one. We have had some of the best minds working on the psychology of child sexual abuse consistently telling us that we know little. We don't know the extent of child sexual abuse (American Psychological Association, 2001b). We don't know of any psychological indicators that are both valid and practically useful for substantiation of child sexual abuse in specific cases (American Psychological Association, 2001a). We do not have significant data supporting the repressed and/or recovered memory of traumatic events (McNally & Geraerts, 2009). But thanks to the many contributors to The Evaluation of Child Sexual Abuse Allegations: A Comprehensive Guide to Assessment and Testimony, we see that there is much we do know and how we may begin to know more... I conclude that this volume sets a standard with which future work will be compared, and it will serve a huge heuristic function." Richard M. Bloom (PsycCRITIQUES (Journal of the American Psychological Association) July 2009) Read more...
