Book recommendation

["James E. Hord. Jr., Ph.D." <DrHord@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Although not widely available, and out-of-print I think, those of you
working in the field of Child Abuse would enjoy "A QUESTION OF INNOCENCE",
by Larry Spiegel, Ph.D.  The author presents a detailed account of his
difficulties defending himself against vague complaints of abuse against
his own daughter.  While only an estimated 2% of such accusations are
false, this one was.  The diffulties in defending and unraveling the case
however, makes for fascinating reading and puts the reader in touch with
the "other side" of cases that are familiar to us in other ways.  If your
library has the book, I recommend it to you.
