Here is what others are saying about it:
“Kasey Hamner's newest book is unique, intriguing and educational. As both an adoptee and mental health professional I gained new perspectives and insights from all the contributors. Read it and see for yourself!”
Joe Soll, CSW, DAPA, adoptee, psychotherapist and author of Adoption
Healing... A Path to Recovery
“In her discussion with the members of the adoption community she has been able for the first time to bring together the many varied and divergent voices of those whose have experienced adoption first hand. While differing on occasion, those who speak so frankly within the forum do share common thoughts on many of the issues discussed. Kasey Hamner has been able to bring to the reader the trials and the triumphs of the individual threads within the multifaceted tapestry that has been woven by the voices that have spoken so eloquently in this forum. No where else have I seen this done and with such sensitivity. It is a refreshing change from the doom and gloom or the sugar coated fantasy about adoption found in some other publications. At last, a book that has all sides and all opinions in one book! This book shows that there is hope and healing in adoption. Adoption Forum is a must read for all members of the adoption triad and for those who work in the helping professions. It will help them gain valuable insights about how each adoption experience is unique in its own way and that not all feel or react the same way about particular issues. It should also assist in understanding the power for healing lies within the individual and with those who have also experienced adoption in their journey through life.”
Maureen Roberts, birth and adoptive mother, Adoption Educator and Consultant, Chairperson Board of Management Adoption International of Western Australia
“From all over the world, Kasey Hammer has given the voices of Triad members an opportunity to be heard. Unedited and uncensored, men and women whose lives have been intimately involved with adoption reveal their feelings. It offers the reader an opportunity to better understand the lifelong dilemmas inherent in that world.”
Annette Baran, MSW, co-author of Lethal Secrets and Adoption Triangle
“In Adoption Forum, Kasey Hamner extends an invitation to those affected by adoption-related issues to share their experience and address many of the 'hot topic' questions discussed within the adoption community. Hamner includes in this discussion new issues to this genre, such as donor insemination. Adoption Forum presents a comprehensive, non-biased look at adoption issues, allowing readers to draw their own conclusions. Triad members and adoption professionals would do well to add this book to their library of adoption literature.”
Robert Andersen M. D. & Rhonda Tucker, adoptees and authors of A Bridge Less Traveled, Twice Visited
