While I am not a student of criminal justice I found this book very interesting. Since this book is some what old the information is a little outdated but it was still accurate. I found that the book didn't make a lot of assumptions about what the predatory thoughts and feelings were like most books I have read on the subject have done. I found the writing made it an easy read and I can't wait to read the next edition. I would recommend that anyone with an interest in the criminal mind and the impact on the victims check out this book.

Sex Crimes: Patterns and Behavior is the text book for my class, and it is one of the best text books I have had. It is short and to the point, but still offers a ton of information. There are easy to find deff. in the side margins, and interesting, and true, storie to explain the material. This book was very well written. My teacher said that some of the statistics are a little misleading, but understandably since there is not a lot of research done on this topic. Over all, it's a great book and I would read it even if it wasn't required for my class
