TONIC IMMOBILITY
Tonic immobility is the temporary motor inhibition in animals, caused by physical restraint and characterized by reduced responsiveness to outside stimuli. This book aims to compare the natural event that prey experience when attacked by a predator to a similar occurrence experienced by sexual assault victims at the time of their assault.
