520    First published in 1988, the groundbreaking The Courage to
       Heal: A Guide for Women Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse 
       has been completely revised, updated, and expanded for its
       20th Anniversary edition. Considered "a classic" and "the 
       bible of healing from child sexual abuse," this inspiring,
       comprehensive and compassionate guide provides a map of 
       support of the healing journey and a lifeline for 
       millions. Weaving together personal experience with 
       professional knowledge, the authors provide clear 
       explanations, practical suggestions, strategies, and 
       support throughout the survival healing process -- as well
       as help, hope and reassurance for families, friends, and 
       caregivers. Readers will feel recognized and encouraged by
       hundreds of moving first-person accounts drawn from 
       interviews and the author's extensive work with survivors,
       both nationally and internationally. Available in 
       translations, as well as in an enhanced audio format, its 
       life-saving messages resonate across cultural, linguistic,
       racial, religious, and geographical boundaries. New 
       elements included in this fourth edition are: - an 
       emphasis on self-care and pacing during the healing 
       process - contemporary research on trauma and the brain, 
       memory , and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) - an 
       increased focus on the body's role in healing - an 
       overview of powerful new healing tools such as imagery, 
       meditation, spirituality, and body-centered practices - 
       stories that reflect an even greater diversity of 
       survivors and their experiences - in-depth guidance to 
       help assess evolving family relationships - new prose and 
       poetry - reassuring accounts of survivors who have been 
       healing for more than twenty years - insights from the 
       authors' decades of experience - and a comprehensive up-to
       -date resource guide. Readers have called The Courage to 
       Heal "invaluable," a "beacon of hope," "wise and gentle," 
       and a "lifesaver." Cherished by survivors, and recommended
       by therapists and institutions everywhere, The Courage to 
       Heal has long been considered an empowering recovery tool,
       as well as an essential resource for victims of child 
       sexual abuse, incest and trauma, as well as for their 
       loved ones.
