Book reviews
 

The Wounded Heart
Allender, Dr. Dan B.
This book has been unhelpful to some group members, comments include...'dangerously guilt provoking', 'focuses on religious expectations rather than personal healing', 'extremely damaging'.
Courage to Heal
Bass, Ellen and Laura Davis
A very helpful book covering a wide range of the issues faced by survivors of sexual abuse. It is easy to dip in and out when looking at specific issues.
Amongst Ourselves 
Tracy Alderman and Karen Marshall
An extremely useful and encouraging book, expecially for those recently diagnosed with dissociative disorders. Easy to read and the sort of book where you can just look at the areas relevant to you. Recommended.
The dissociative identity disorder sourcebook.
Deborah Bray Haddock
This book looks at Dissociative Identity Disorder from a variety of view points including the survivor, carer, therapist. It is interesting and infomative though a bit technical at times. That would be useful though for survivors who are on their way to healing and therapists. Recommended.
The Stranger in the Mirror  Dissociation the hidden epidemic.
Marlene Steinburg and Maxine Schnall
An emotive read for those recently diagnosed with DID. Deals with the journeys of healing for survivors with DID. Good to read but follows a specific mode for healing which may not be applicable for every survivor.
