Many safeguarding practitioners do not specialise in work with sex
offenders, but do find themselves working with them and need
professional understanding and expertise to do so. This book
provides professionals with a clear understanding of current theory
and good practice. Designed as a complement to specialist
assessment processes, it covers relevant theory, ranging from
current research on to neurobiology and sexual deviance, through to
types of offending and offender profiles. It also lays out key
areas of good practice, from carrying out assessments, managing
risk and making complex decisions through to current legislation
and how best to safeguard families. Taking you from the fundamental
principles right through to responding to complex cases, this book
is essential reading for all safeguarding professionals.
At a raucous party during their freshman year at Princeton, Tom and
Amber connect in ways that seem innocent enough at first. But as
things progress, they find themselves in murky territory, with
ramifications that could affect the rest of their lives. _x000D_

An inquiry into the phenomenology of "woman" based in the
relationship between lived time and sexual violence Feminist
phenomenologists have long understood a woman's life as inhibited,
confined, and constrained by sexual violence. In this important
inquiry, author Megan Burke both builds and expands on this legacy
by examining the production of normative womanhood through racist
tropes and colonial domination. Ultimately, Burke charts a new
feminist phenomenology based in the relationship between lived time
and sexual violence. By focusing on time instead of space, When
Time Warps places sexualized racism at the center of the way
"woman" is lived. Burke transports questions of time and gender
outside the realm of the historical, making provocative new
insights into how gendered individuals live time, and how their
temporal existence is changed through particular experiences.
Providing a potent reexamination of the theory of Simone de
Beauvoir-while also bringing to the fore important women of color
theorists and engaging in the temporal aspects of #MeToo-When Time
Warps makes a necessary, lasting contribution to our understanding
of gender, race, and sexual violence.

Sarah Forsyth has spent most of her life in fear. After overcoming
the hurt and heartbreak of a horrific childhood, Sarah managed to
build a new life for herself as a nursery nurse. Then, one day, she
spotted a newspaper advert for a job in a creche in Amsterdam.
Excited by the prospect of a fresh start abroad, she eagerly signed
up. But within minutes of stepping off the plane in Amsterdam her
life began to fall apart... There was no creche and no job. That
night, at just nineteen years of age, her life - her real life, her
life as Sarah Forsyth - ended. Fed cocaine and cannabis, and forced
at gunpoint to work as a prostitute in the Red Light District of
Amsterdam: Sarah was a victim of sex-trafficking. Sarah Forsyth is
a survivor. This is her heartbreaking story.
Sexual harassment at work, the real life story about unwelcome and unlawful behaviour in the workplace.
The intimidations of sexual harassment unwittingly pull you into a world of sadness and loneliness. This story gradually reveals how an apparently stray kiss leads to degrading harassment.
