Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
This work brings together a range of diverse but related material on the topic of understanding and treating sex offences, dealing with both the victim and the offender. Advocating a clinical approach to treatment, it considers both theoretical and practical components. Contributors from varied fields, including psychiatry, psychology and social work, focus on three specific areas within their specialist fields: empirical research, theories built upon the data, practical application of the research and theory. Also provides a range of theoretical views and styles of clinical practice that are relevant to both offenders and victims.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
