Juvenile Sexual Offenders: A Comprehensive Guide to Risk Evaluation
The evaluation of risk for sexual re-offense in children and adolescents is quite different from risk evaluation with adult sexual offenders. Sexually abusive youths are persons-in-development and, as such, must be understood in the social and developmental contexts of their lives, having the potential to change from year to year in their capacities, attitudes, sense of self and others, and neurobiology. Providing crucial, current information literature, Juvenile Sexual Offenders: A Comprehensive Guide to Risk Evaluation, published by John Wiley & Sons, offers a detailed and timely overview of the process of risk evaluation of sexually abusive youth, and practical information for effectively conducting thorough and comprehensive risk evaluations.
