Women who sexually abuse children

Until recently, the topic of female sexual offenders remained under-researched, and many incorrect assumptions and beliefs still surround the subject.

This book is organised in to five parts around eleven chapters.

It provides a comprehensive overview of the latest research in this often overlooked area and discusses both adult female offenders and adolescents/younger children who commit sexual offences against children.

After an in-depth evaluation of research literature, the author then considers a range of treatment approaches and directions for future research.
