Sexual aggression is a pervasive societal problem with devastating
and sometimes permanent effects on its victims. Approximately one
in four adults have been either victims or perpetrators of sexually
aggressive behavior. Until now a disproportionate amount of
attention has been paid to victim-based methods of prevention with
a corresponding lack of emphasis on the perpetrators of sexual
aggression, whose rate of recidivism is quite high. As
psychologists and mental health professionals turn their attention
to assessment and treatment of sexual offenders, the need for
practical, scientifically based information on sexual aggression
has become clear. In this book, Gordon Hall offers suggestions
based on state-of-the-science theory and research. Using the
quadripartite model of sexual aggression to provide a framework for
causes and possible solutions, it breaks new ground by proposing
preventive intervention with potential perpetrators. The book is a
valuable resource for anyone involved in mental health,
criminology, and the judicial system.
