Clinical psychologist Dr Palesa Makhale-Mahlangu offers an African perspective on rape for African women survivors that includes the physical, spiritual, emotional, cultural and social dimensions of healing.

"This book was written primarily for psychologists, counsellors, therapists and related professionals who are are trained and licensed to provide interventions for African female rape survivors. This work is intended to raise awareness of an enduring service gap that has neglected the violated spiritual dimensions of clients. It is presented in a coherent, well-structured format, which will enable the reader to dip in and out of the book as they deem necessary. It can thus be used as a reference book by students and practising therapists. Equally, the book may be read in sequence from the beginning to the end with ease. The language in this book is accessible for different professions that offer services to clients who have suffered psychological trauma." Mr Lebo Molete, Senior Fellow, Atlantic Institute
