5 out of 5 stars Essential reading for all survivors of childhood abuse, 22 September, 1999
Reviewer: A reader from London, UK
I have read many books on this subject (like alot of survivors I imagine!) and this is the only book I have found which challenges the widely held belief that survivors are forever damaged. Sanford highlights strengths that survivors have, as well as showing areas to draw strength from. Often when I read books about sexual abuse I find myself despairing about how I will ever be able to move on - this book made me feel that it would be possible.

An excellent book.
