Product Description

This work looks at the logic of forgotten abuse. The author's theory shows how psychogenic amnesia not only happens but, if the abuse occurred at the hands of a parent or caregiver, is often necessaary for survival. It should give embattled professionals, beleaguered abuse survivors, and the confused public an understanding of the lifelong effects and treatment of child abuse.

5.0 out of 5 stars By the first victim of FMSF, 17 Mar 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Betrayal Trauma: Logic of Forgetting Childhood Abuse (Hardcover)

The daughter of the founder's of the False Memory Syndrome Foundation explores the valuable research which makes a strong case for repression/dissociation of abusive experiences in childhood. She is careful to make clear she is presenting a scientific THEORY which she calls "Betrayal Trauma." However, the research she notes to support this Theory is extremely strong and well presented. She avoids the personal voice you might expect, given her personal connection to the FMSF and it's creation, preferring to concentrate on the scientific issues at hand. She does a masterful job! This is a MUST read for any survivor of childhood trauma, for anyone involved in treating adult survivors of childhood trauma, and for anyone sincerely interested in looking at both sides of the "Memory War" with an eye for balance and truth. There are several surprises within these pages which truth seekers will appreciate. The text is well cited and eminently balanced.
