This latest collection of articles reflects the most recent developments in the field while offering practical information about how to apply these innovations to your practice. It offers a unique overview of the current state of where we are, as well as indicating what we still need to know. The internationally recognized authors from England, Scotland, Ireland, Canada and the United States span several different professional disciplines, reflecting their different starting and ending points, and providing anyone reading this book with a solid evidence-based foundation from which to work. Offering a diversity of views, but which hang together as a collection, the text addresses both conceptual as well as practical areas. A sampling of the nearly 20 chapters covers topics such as a new framework for assessing a child's risk to repeat concerning sexual behaviours (Tracey Curwen); a step-by-step approach to responding to concerning sexual behaviours in children and youth with learning disabilities (Joanne Butterworth and Tim Plant); typologies of adolescents who sexually harm and the associated risk factors, modus operandi and criminal activities (Nicole Hickey); and a CBT-based treatment approach to reducing shame and increasing responsibility with adolescents who have sexually offended (James Worling, Nina Josefowitz and Melissa Malter). This book offers the experienced practitioner invaluable information about the most recent developments and offers others interested in beginning this work a fascinating overview from which to start. It will also be useful for post-graduate and post-qualifying students who have a serious interest in working in this area, and who are looking for something beyond a student introductory text. This volume builds on the editor's previous volumes: Working with Children and Young People Who Sexually Abuse: Taking the Field Forward (RHP, 2007); Children and Young People who Sexually Abuse: New Theory, Research and Practice Developments (RHP, 2005); Young People who Sexually Abuse: Building the Evidence Base for Your Practice (RHP, 2002); and Working with Young People who Sexually Abuse: New Pieces of the Jigsaw Puzzle (RHP, 1999).
