520 $aForcible sexual assault has become a critical issue in our society, and, increasingly, human service providers are being asked to address themselves to this serious social problem. This book is basic reading for anyone whose work brings him into contact with the offender or his victim. Based on over 15 years of extensive clinical experience with more than 500 sexual offenders, Men Who Rape examines the psychological and emotional factors which predispose a person to react to situational and life events with sexual violence. It provides a framework for understanding the developmental histories, the life styles, and the motivations of men who rape and offers guidelines for the identification, diagnostic assessment, and treatment of such offenders in order to help train professionals working in this area.
520 $aMen who Rape differentiates patterns of assault among offenders and examines clinical aspects of their rape behavior, such as the selection of the victim, the determination of the sexual act, the offender's subjective reaction during the assault, the role of alcohol, sexual dysfunction, and other related issues. Specific categories of sexual assault, such as gang rape, child rape, male rape and marital rape, are considered, as well as specific categories of offenders, such as the adolescent offender, the offender against elderly victims, and the female offender.
520 $aWritten in a nontechnical, highly readable style, this is an important book that will be of interest to psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, crisis counselors, criminologists, attorneys, judges, law envorcement and correctional officers, parole and probation officers, teachers, nurses, physicians, clergymen, forensic scientists, legislators, and anyone concerned with the issue of rape.
