The Rape of Childhood : Developmental, Clinical, and Sociocultural Aspects of Childhood Sexual Abuse Hardback
Edited by Salman Akhtar
Part of the Margaret S. Mahler series
Hardback
Description
The Rape of Childhood: Development, Clinical, and Sociocultural Aspects of Childhood Sexual Abuse details the dark realm of childhood sexual abuse.
While lived experience, memory, subjectivity, and affect cannot be classified into neat categories, this collection is divided into four core sections-epidemiology, emotional sequelae, psychoanalytic insight, and ameliorative strategies-to provide a thorough description of childhood abuse.
The contributors examine the variables that increase a child's vulnerability to maltreatment, including age, gender, ethnicity, and socioeconomic factors, and outline the various emotional and behavioral consequences of childhood sexual abuse.
This collection is essential reading for therapists working to help formerly abused children to learn how to love, be loved, and care about themselves.
