Zusatztext While this book considers the problem of sexual abuse in the Catholic Church, it is much more than that. It provides very rich information and analysis in the areas of organisational culture, offending behaviour, therapeutic approaches and social commentary. The author's systemic conceptualisation allows insights to develop which helps the reader to consider the issue from a wider, multi-faceted perspective... this thought provoking book succeeds in hugely engaging the reader and provides hope that this problem can be addressed meaningfully in the future.
