Unpacking the questions that cast victims as deviants, the author critically examines why we stigmatize survivors of rape, battering, incest, and clergy abuse - and how they reclaim their identities. She explores the shifting perceptions over time of victims as blameworthy, blameless, pathetic, or heroic figures.
