an162196@anon.penet.fi (veritas) writes: 5.5.1) Books (Last Updated 3/10/93) These first few entries are highly reccomended for anyone dealing with survivors issues, and are constantly in high-demand. Any bookstore that carries books on these topics is almost guarenteed to have the following books in stock. Bass, Ellen and Laura Davis: _The Courage to Heal: A Guide for Women Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse_. [When Mike Lew asked Ellen Bass about a Courage to Heal for men she said that Courage to Heal was for men, all you need do is switch the pronouns as you read. (or something like that...)] _The Courage to Heal Work Book_ for men and women _Allies in Healing_ a courage to heal book for the SO's or support people of survivors. I would recomend this book because it has little or no ax to grind, is non- judgmental, is writen by survivors and has lots of survivor stuff in it and, most important for me, shows me what surviving is. I finaly admitted my abuse after reading it and got into therapy, untill then I was "Perfect". I recommend this book to anyone who even thinks that they, or some one they know may have been abused. (IMHO-- PANDA) The courage to heal workbook : for women and men survivors ................. Laura Davis Allies in healing : when the person you love was sexually abused ......... Laura Davis The sexual healing journey : a guide for survivors of sexual abuse .. Wendy Maltz Also, John Bradshaw's books are pretty good for healing shame, and realizing that the abuse wasn't my fault. Healing the Shame that Binds You, Bradshaw on: The Family, and Homecoming: reclaiming and championing your inner child are the books of his that I know. For working on boundaries, Pia Mellody's books Facing Codependence and Breaking Free: a Workbook for Facing Codependence are pretty good. These books should be available at larger bookstores; check the recovery, psychological and "self-help" sections. The following books are listed alphabeticlly by author. These books are on survivor topics in general. A couple more specific sections follow. (Unfortunately, due to lack of info, we only have a few specific sections at this time. More to come in the future.) If you have any recommendations or corrections for these lists, please let me know, and it will be added on.
