Excellent Read

For those whom want to get a handle on this perplexing subject, this book is very cerebral. Written for professionals, it sould be a core ciriculum for anyone - survivors, non-offending siblings, or those whom want to understand the uncomprehensible betrayal of children and the problem in multi-problem familes. Gives language to feelings and illuminates the why it occurs, the underlying deficits of the perpetrator and illicits provocative thoughts.
