From Tom Doyle: CLERGY SEXUAL ABUSE BIBLIOGRAPHY OF SELECTED SOURCES RELATED TO CLERGY SEXUAL ABUSE, ECCLESIASTICAL POLITICS AND THEOLOGY AND CHURCH HISTORY, Revised September 5, 2012

First is a note from Tom Doyle, introducing the last update of his bibliography. Then is the latest version of the bibliography.

* * *
I am sending out another edition of my bibliography because I received several valuable suggestions after the last go-around. I am most grateful to Christopher Pett from the UK for his suggested entries. I have not read the books he suggested…but I just ordered them from Amazon so I’ll get to them soon.

Another plug for Ray Mouton’s IN GOD’S HOUSE. I’ve started it and have also read some reviews from Europe…..all I can say is that if you want to know how it all started and if you want to get a glimpse of the byzantine world Ray, Mike Peterson and I stumbled into, this is the place to go. I haven’t finished it yet so…..hold on for my final review.

Christopher was kind enough to suggest books by Alice Miller on the consequences of childhood abuse. I have always admitted that the weakest link in my bibliography is the section on psychology and trauma for which I depend heavily on the input of others more knowledgeable than myself. I checked on Alice Miller and find that she has published a number of books on the subject. Before adding any I want to take a closer look and also get the publication information…but they will be in the next version.

Tom
