Sexual offenses and offenders : theory, practice, and policy

Karen J. Terry.
Belmont, CA : Wadsworth/Cengage Learning, ©2013.
"This comprehensive book examines the unique characteristics of sexual offenses and the resulting laws that pertain specifically to them, including the causes and treatment of sexual offenses as well as the policy implications of research outcomes. Sexual offenders are often treated differently than other offenders (by both the community and the criminal justice system) as a result of public scorn and recidivism. This distinctive book provides you with thorough, research-based coverage of this inherently controversial subject." --
