Exploring the conditions under which children, as a function of their own abuse, become abusive themselves.

This book examines, through the lens of attachment and family systems theory, the legacies of violence and trauma that can infect families through generations. Bringing the latest research to a clinical audience, all therapists who work with families and children will learn something from this book.

Pamela C. Alexander, PhD, has conducted family violence research for over 30 years. At the Universities of Memphis, Maryland and Pennsylvania, she was the PI for three federally funded projects including the first randomized clinical trial of group treatment for incest survivors and a psychotherapy outcome study of the use of motivational interviewing with male batterers. She also evaluated the Army’s and the Marines’ home visitation child abuse prevention program. She currently consults with JBS International and has a private practice. She lives in Sherborn, Massachusetts.
