For victims, the process of sharing information about an assault with loves ones or reporting the crime to the police can be harrowing, embarrassing, and painful. The responses of others can greatly affect the way a rape survivor copes. Often the men who are closest to rape survivors—intimate partners, friends, and family members—are simply unprepared to offer the right assistance. The wrong word or action may trigger an unexpected reaction. Written by Alan W. McEvoy, PhD, \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eWhen the Subject Is Rape\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e is designed specifically to illustrate the role men can play as allies in a woman’s recovery from rape.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book examines the many aspects of rape. It looks at both the short- and long-term emotional and psychological impacts rape can have on a woman, what she can expect during the prosecution of her rapist, and strategies that can help her to recover from the assault. It discusses how the men in her life should communicate with her and address her needs throughout her recovery, and describes how they should conduct themselves to avoid unintentionally causing her more pain. It also explains how to identify changes in behavior that may signal an undisclosed rape. Even if a rape goes unreported, both the emotional consequences and the need for support throughout the recovery process will still be present.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRape is not an easy subject to discuss. Sexual violence can radically alter the course of a woman's life. By understanding the trauma associated with rape and other forms of sexual assault, men can play an important part in a woman's healing process. \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eWhen the Subject Is Rape \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eprovides information that can help men to create a climate of support for the empowerment of women who are on the path to recovery.","brand":"Square One","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47357085581567,"sku":"9780757005220","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/Jacket_7630c465-3133-4c9a-aadb-84f7ea235dec.jpg?v=1772040454","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780757005220","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
