"This
brilliant, harrowing book exposes the cruel perversities of the
proponents of 'Parental Alienation Syndrome,'
'Man-boy love,' radical polygamy and corporal punishment. Even those helping
professionals who work directly with children will be shocked
at the
influence these disturbed people have on our child protective system,
our courts, and our society's conscience. Those of us who are
psychologists will be shamed to see how our theories, research and
practices have been twisted in the courts to support the devastation of
families and the abandonment of our children's best interests.
The authors whom I have long known for their brave and
persistent
work on behalf of powerless and victimized chileren, have done a
stunning job of bringing the realities of these injustices to our
attention. ... "

book provides a valuable tool for attorneys, law enforcment officers,
social workers, therapists and health care workers -- to all who seek
to help abused and neglected children."

"It
was not CPS or the police that rescued my child from the sadistic
beatings of my daughter's father, but two child advocates.
They
rustled up the system to pay attention. They saved her life
and
my sanity."
