...the book is an important collection of thought-provoking essays that stimulate and challenge policy makers, academics and practice-based readers. (The Howard Journal of Criminal Justice, 5 January 2015) This comprehensive collection of chapters from a stellar cast of contributors clearly fills a gap in the literature and brings together some genuinely international thinking . (Prison Service Journal, 1 July 2013) ?This is a wholly unique, comprehensive and indispensable resource for those working in the field of sex offender treatment and research. The Handbook contains fascinating discussions of some of the crucial but often overlooked ethical issues in the field written by an all-star line-up of contributors from the worlds of research and practice. Precisely the contribution that has been needed in the area of sex offender treatment.??Professor Shadd Maruna, Director of the Institute of Criminology & Criminal justice, Queen?s University Belfast ?This book represents a major landmark in the sex offending domain, a single volume devoted to ethical and legal aspects of treatment and management. The chapters are, without exception, first class and represent thoughtful and cutting edge analyses of a variety of important issues. I thoroughly recommend it for practitioners, students and researchers.??Professor Tony Ward, Victoria University of Wellington
