4.0 out of 5 stars
Practical and well written,
By Tyler Park (Portland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Treating Child Sex Offenders and Victims: A Practical Guide (Hardcover)
Salter's book provides the reader with a concisely written guide to diagnosing and working with both Sex Offenders and their victims. She tackles a century worth of documentation on the subject of sex offenders managing to simultaneously dispel many of the fallacious arguments concerning the disorder while presenting a well informed description of most sex offenders. This book is particularly nice in that Salter uses many real cases from her practice to give the piece more clarity as well as a more human impact that many texts on the subject fail to provide. As a teacher, I found the section on "Identifying Sexually Abused Children" particularly useful. A great read!

3.0 out of 5 stars
Accurate up to 1988 needs update,
By Lucero Mitchell (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Treating Child Sex Offenders and Victims: A Practical Guide (Paperback)
This is definitly a good book from a clinical stand point. It does use actual cases, real world happenstance and years of factfinding research. However it is not up to times on things like cycles especially the sex offenders sexual assault cycle.
I would like to recommend a new book that is extraordinary in that it is not just for treatment of those who have already offended but a book for all people revealing a new or preventative approach to sex abuse, not just after the fact treatment. Predator Down

good if you're a behaviorist,
By
This review is from: Treating Child Sex Offenders and Victims: A Practical Guide (Paperback)
This is the best collection of behaviorist techniques in treating sexual offenders against children. If you're looking for humanist techniques, Amazon has many other good offers.
