Arguing that Rthe worst forms of trauma are the human intentional type", or trauma perpetrated consciously and intentionally by one human being on another, the authors define radical evil, symbolized by Satan, as trauma-inducing acts that are engaged in consciously, for its own sake, in an unapologetic way. |

| Publisher Description: This book helps those who provide care to victims of abuse and violence add to their knowledge base an understanding of evil. The authors "demythologize" evil and offer an integrated perspective that looks within persons, relationships, and culture to better identify the seeds of potential abuse and violence. The book encourages caregivers to take an actively prophetic role in addressing the seeds of abuse that lie within each one of us and our culture. |
