Successfully navigate the minefield of misinformation that can prevent justice from being done in child sexual abuse cases From the Foreword, by Robert Geffner, PhD, editor of the Journal of Child Sexual Abuse: "Too often, the public and some professionals have been misled by media publicity and articles . . . that appear scientific, but in reality, are biased opinions or over-generalized research. Forensic cases are being decided in many courts based upon the recommendations of so-called expert witnesses'who do not actually know the clinical research or understand the dynamics of such abusive relationships." This much-needed book points out and corrects misinformation that everyone who works with victims, offenders, or families in which sexual abuse has occurred needs to understand clearly. Especially vital in today's political climate, Misinformation Concerning Child Sexual Abuse and Adult Survivors gives you state-of-the-science information on such myths as "false memory syndrome," "recovered memory therapy," and the "lack of harm" to some sexually abused boys. Misinformation Concerning Child Sexual Abuse and Adult Survivors examines: forensic issues, including the "false memory" defense and how the long-term impact of childhood sexual abuse is often misrepresented in court three separate expert examinations of Rind, Tromovitch, and Bauserman's well-known--and often misrepresented--review of long-term child sexual abuse outcomes treatment recommendations and guidelines for addressing the memory controversy in clinical practice the fascinating case history/cautionary tale of the child molester Robert Halsey, who was convicted and sentenced to two life sentences in 1993, and how public and academic resources were misused to claim he was wrongly convicted.

Psychiatry today is not as advertised, as bestselling author Charles Whitfield describes in this scientifically accurate new book. It exposes the pseudo science behind modern biological psychiatry that misdiagnoses people who have painful emotional, psychological and behavioral symptoms as being mentally ill and then mistreats them with toxic psychiatric drugs that don t work well or make them worse. Dr Whitfield blows the whistle on and names the culprits that promote bio-psychiatry for profit and control and explains why and how to avoid their mind- and body- manipulations. Most of these culprits are the Bigs, which include Big Pharma, Big Government, Big Insurance, Big Academia and Big Professional groups (as the American Psychiatric Association, American Medical Association and the National Alliance on Mental Illness). Each of the Bigs promotes and supports the misdiagnosis and mistreatment of what they call mental illness, which Dr Whitfield documents is instead the painful effects of repeated childhood and later trauma, which he explains in some detail. Throughout he describes how this major problem has developed and how to heal from it.

Teachers of God: Further Reflections on A Course in Miracles by Charles L. Whitfield, M.D. This second book to the first volume titled Choosing God: A Birds Eye View of A Course in Miracles picks up where the first one ended. Here Dr. Whitfield continues to go beyond clearly summarizing the main messages of A Course in Miracles. This best selling author of Healing the Child Within and nine other self-help and recovery oriented books, draws upon his vast clinical experience assisting people with addictions, "mental illnesses," and other problems in living. He does so by correlating the simple yet profound teachings of this modern holy book with the reader's current personal and relationship problems and recovery needs. Dr. Whitfield writes "A Course in Miracles is the most spiritually exciting book I have ever read. I have found no other spiritual writing as intellectually stimulating yet so practical in our relationships with ourself, others and God. "Do you want peace or pain? If you want peace, the Course suggests, Choose God. It's that simple. What is not so simple is knowing exactly why, when and how to choose God." In Teachers of God he summarizes 15 more key Course topics plus a new and original article The Universal Message of The Course in which he compares the Course to world religions and spiritual paths, including Alcoholics Anonymous and other Twelve Step fellowships.

The Natural Soul: Unity with the Spiritual Energy that Connects Us What It looks like and how It feels The central concept of The Natural Soul is the difference between ego, the character we play in our daily drama, and who we really are our soul or True Self. This book overflows with intimate vignettes that bring these ideas alive. Whitfield tackles head-on our current epidemic of spiritual and societal malaise and our overuse of prescription medication which usually numbs us to our soul. Our ego may struggle to understand but as we read we awaken to what our soul innately knows We came here as souls born into a human body and we will leave again as our soul. She uses this new way of seeing our life in other areas including: the love of our life, raising children, grieving naturally instead of numbing out in depression, helping others die, facing our own final passage in this life time and soul contact across the veil. The Natural Soul, Whitfield's fifth published book, offers us our souls' natural birth right a life of peace and joy. Previous books have garnered her appearances on Oprah, Larry King, Donahue, the U.S. Senate and U.N. in New York.
