- Summary:
- ”Seeking Justice in Child Sexual Abue is a thorough, well-written treatment of one county’s effort to respond to child sexual abuse. It is not a dry academic study. Rather, it is a story of real people, and the reader gets to know them in some detail. Coordinating the response to child sexual abuse is challenging, and this book offers many useful insights into succeeding at such coordination.”
