Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Peper Harow is internationally renowned as a healing community for adolescents who have suffered severe physical or mental abuse, or neglect, and whose behaviour is consequently extremely disturbed. Melvyn Rose gives an honest and personal account of how the community's present therapeutic role evolved, describing in detail the programme designed to bring about change, and the internal and external relationships developed in the process.
Bibliography: p. 205-207. - Includes index.
