Victims No Longer - A Must for all Male Survivors!, 6 Dec 1999
By A Customer
Mike Lew has done what can only be described as a work of brilliance! I would more than happily recommend this book to any male survivor of sexual abuse as the 'definitive' guide. Mike Lew has written this book in a sensitive, empowing and easy to read guide for the male survivor. He includes inserts from the pens of other male survivors and guides you through the book with well thought of 'focus' points. Whilst reading this book you will find that the pages, stories from other Survivors and style will leap out and come to life. At last you will know that you are not alone... Although difficult at times, just remember that you are in full control, if you wish to put it down because of pain - then do.If you are thinking of buying your first book on Sexual Abuse as a Male Survivor or perhaps are thinking of broadening your collection or knowledge of the subject then this, in my personal opinion, is the one to get. May your journey empower and enlighten you - there is light at the end of the darkness...

five stars isn't enough for this, 17 Jun 1999
By A Customer
Mike Lew's book is the definitive book on recovery for males from childhood sexual abuse. When I first bought it, I was not even able to open it to the blurb page without feeling that finally, there was something that I could use to help...finally there was someone who cared. The book is hard to read. Hard, hell, it is, at times, nearly impossible, but it is also hopeful. Mike Lew is sure to include positive messages directed at the survivor, messages of encouragement and hope. I found myself with tears in my eyes as I saw my story and my life on every page, but I now know that I will survive. If you need this book, first get yourself into therapy, then get this book and take all the time you need with it. Don't rush through it.

An excellent update, 18 May 2004
With the revised and updated edition of Victims No Longer, those men who have yet got the chance to speak out and gain the support they deserve and need, Mike's book shows that they are not alone, and never were.Mikes insight and shared views, show us that as male survivors, we have unlimited personal resources we sometimes dont see, but we are survivors, not victims! As Survivors, we share a common theme, and Mike's book shows the courage and strength we all have, even if we dont think we have it. Steve Survivors Swindon
