Not just another book about sexual abuse, this book explores the
possibility of the hard but real journey to self-respect. It is an
in-depth approach to understanding the individual's experience in
sexual love, and an exploration of the nature of the self and
sexuality. Describing a wide range of violations of sexuality and
the resulting injuries to self-respect, it has the theoretical and
clinical depth to be useful to professionals, while written in
language accessible to the lay reader. The necessity of bringing in
the body is examined and the text offers an experientially relevant
way of conceptualizing bodily processes (bioenergetics) in
sexuality and the self. This work affords new avenues for
understanding the possibilities of the evolution of the self in
adult life, and of child development toward the rebirth of
self-respect and the development of a sexual ethic.
