Description

?In a broadly inclusive presentation of a wide spectrum of recent psychological and clinical psychiatric research findings, the chapter authors in this section clearly delineate the multiplicity and complexity of the factors that affect the registration, storage, and retrieval of traumatic memories. Their review provides an effective antidote to the polarization of the current debates about the veridicality of adult memories of childhood trauma and the pathogenic effects of childhood sexual abuse. As a result, the authors have cleared the way for a more empirical, comprehensive, and productive investigation of the nature, etiology, and treatment of dissociative and posttraumatic disorders.?--(www.appi.org)
