Book excerpt: 'Those who study memory find no easy answers when they try to validate the authenticity of human memories. Prozan provides a fresh, unbiased look at the issues involved in the false memory debate. She neither endorses nor discards the 'false memory syndrome' in this book. Embracing theoretical, legal, and clinical issues, the book takes a strong psychoanalytical approach in exploring how adults remember, recall, and recount memories from childhood experiences in general, and from child sexual abuse in particular... An asset to upper-division undergraduates, graduate students, faculty, and psychotherapists.'—Choice Magazine
