Excellent book for males supporting a female rape survivor

I am a psychologist working in a college counselor center, and I highly recommend this book. It is designed to help male loved ones of a female rape survivors to understand rape from a woman's point of view, and thus it is appropriate for boyfriends, husbands, fathers, and male friends. The individual chapters address important issues such as understanding rape, dealing with immediate concerns, and reporting rape. The book offers specific guidelines and suggestions on how to help the survivor, including do's and don'ts, what to say to the survivor and others, and how to provide reassurance. Finally, three helpful appendices provide case studies, a list of rape crisis centers throughout the US and Canada, and a bibliography of suggested readings. A must-have book for men providing support to the women they love.
