Zusammenfassung:Male sexual offending against children is a serious and widespread problem in Britain and the USA. Increasing awareness of this disturbing fact has led to great public and professional interest in how to deal with sex offenders. Sexual Offending Against Children: Assessment and Treatment of Male Abusers is the first book written specifically by UK professionals about practice, and it brings together people experienced in working with sex offenders and their families in a range of community based and institutional settings. The editors and contributors reflect the development, achievement and challenges of practice in the UK, stressing the multi-disciplinary context in which such practice needs to be undertaken. They describe the assessment, treatment and management of sexual offenders who assault children, and consider the impact of such work on individual practitioners and implications for managers and their agencies. The book covers both the theoretical and practical issues raised by working with those who sexually assault children, and demonstrates clearly the application of research and theory in practice. With its practical approach, linked to a clear and firm theoretical base, Sexual Offending Against Children: Assessment and Treatment of Male Abusers will be invaluable to students, teachers and professionals in Social Work, Social Policy and Psychology, as well as to those in the Police and Prison Services who work with child sexual offenders.
