Sexual Violence, Dissociation, and Inequality: A Guide to Understanding Traumatic Memory

Author(s) : Muriel Salmona

Reviews and Endorsements

[This book] gave me deeper understanding of the extreme suffering of sexual violence survivors in our patriarchal societies where still today, the law of silence, denial, and manipulation rules alongside impunity and banalization of crimes and the guilt, solitude, and rejection in victims. Whatever your interests, discipline, persuasion, or profession, I am persuaded that reading this book will help you to better understand the victim in front of you or the survivor seeking your help.
Denis Mukwege, winner of the 2018 Nobel Peace Prize

Muriel is a professional who is pushing forwards the understanding of victims of domestic and sexual violence with the determination of an activist.
Roland Coutanceau, psychiatrist
