These steps are meant to help the process of treatment by breaking down the experience of trauma to a set of steps and interventions aimed at resolving traumatic symptoms within a given time frame. Our text seeks to challenge the tendency towards reductionism inherent in the dominant social paradigm by encouraging the development of a phenomenological and interdisciplinary approach to understanding sexual trauma. In doing so, the examples of interventions presented in each case study reflect practice methods that honor the complexity of the human experience of sexual trauma, suffering, and recovery. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"The authors of this casebook have done an extraordinary job interweaving clinical theories—especially trauma theory—with social theories and practice issues. They carefully mine the relationship between social work practitioner and client: the working alliance, transference and countertransference. Research on practice is artfully applied to rich, evocative, and detailed clinical cases. Students are further helped in conceptualizing these cases using study guides and questions that the authors provide at the end of each chapter.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eJoan Berzoff,\u003c\/b\u003e professor emerita, Smith College School for Social Work\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"It is the ultimate paradox: the damage inflicted by disruptive relationships requires relationship to heal. In no case is this more challenging than when the damage is sexual in nature. \u003ci\u003eThe Social Work and Sexual Trauma Casebook\u003c\/i\u003e boldly asserts that work with those who have experienced sexual trauma requires a willingness to enter the world of the ‘other’ in deep and unpredictable ways in order to facilitate healing. If you’re looking for easy answers, you won’t find them here. Kudos to the authors for resisting reductionism and inviting us all to embrace our own messy humanity.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDarla Spence Coffey, PhD, MSW,\u003c\/b\u003e president and chief executive officer, Council on Social Work Education\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction: Using Case Studies of Sexual Trauma in the Classroom \u003ci\u003eJaffe, Floersch, Longhofer, and Conti\u003c\/i\u003e 1.
