Product Description
Product Description
Recently, allegations of sexual abuse, particularly those based on the recovery of supposed "repressed memories" of abuse have reached incredible proportions. This book reveals how and why a startling proportion of mental health professionals, ignorant about the workings of memory, are unwittingly leading their patients to believe that they are victims of sexual abuse. Dr Yapko explains what we know - and don't know - about memory, repression and suggestibility. He also offers practical advice for individuals and families whose lives have been damaged by questionable accusations, and for those who suspect they have been falsely led to believe they were abused. The mental health profession is currently divided over the phenomenon of repressed memories of childhood sexual abuse, and this book should be of interest to therapists and lawyers on both sides of the debate, as well as to the countless people who have been touched personaly by this painful issue.
