From the Inside Flap

This, the first major survey on rape and sexual assault in Britain, answers the questions: How much? Where? By whom? What must be done? The pain of rape and the cost to women s confidence, freedom and relationships uncovered in this report are heartbreaking. But every woman will feel less alone as she sees her personal fears and her experience shared by others on a massive scale. While official statistics rely on the few cases reported to the police, the statistics and quotations in this report overturn accepted notions about rape, and about what life is really like for women and girls.
