Beyond the Shame is based on a number of case studies & tracks one of these cases in depth. That case is the experience of one man who as a young minister began to molest children. One part of the book traces his feelings & behaviors as he practiced his disorder for thirty years. The book describes the author's efforts with him in therapy over a two year period & chronicles his journey toward successful recovery. The book discusses the uses of the addiction model to understand the nature of pedophilia & the place of the twelve-step programs in treatment. Beyond the Shame avoids medical & therapeutic jargon & is written in a style that will make it of interest to: Individuals who suffer from this disorder & members of their family; Victims of sexual abuse & professional therapists; Social workers & other helping professionals; Ministers, educators, & others who work with youth.
