"A dangerous book. It is very, very important that you know the full background of Dr. Loftus before reading this book and choosing to believe it. Dr. Loftus has a long and interesting involvement in issues of recovered memories, including a period of time where she not only supported the evidence that repressed memories existed, but actually wrote a "study" supporting repressed memories. Mainstream psychologists and trauma specialists have decried this book. Dr. Loftus "research" methods have been shown to be faulty and unreliable, and the organization with which she has allied herself has a fascinating and slightly frightening history in and of itself. All of this information is accessible on the web, with varying perspectives. Please educate yourself on Dr. Loftus' background before believing all that is put forward in this book.
If you really desire to know the facts of repressed memories there are far better books out there which do not mislead and misrepresent the facts and scientific evidence the way Dr. Loftus has done. These books look at all angles and issues from a scientific perspective and do not -- unlike Dr. Loftus -- take on the political agenda of the FMSF."
"I love Elizabeth Loftus. Everything she writes is just fascinating. We studied her at length in college, in the psych of law laboratory, and I just reread this one about two weeks back. Hasn't lost the punch of the first time around. I also love Witness to the Defense. I'm still waiting to get my hands on Eyewitness Testimony, which looks like perhaps the most interesting of these three!"
