This comprehensive text provides an up-to-date review and critique of current theorising about sexual offending. It presents the key ideas underpinning each theory in a clear and accessible manner. Theories are rigorously tested and evaluated, and their merits are examined from both a research and a clinical point of view. Importantly, the emphasis is on providing clear links between theory and practice, and the clinical implications of the different theories and perspectives are explicitly discussed. In addition, a number of new ideas about the aetiology of sexual offending are presented.Theories of Sexual Offending is one of the few books to draw all of the disparate strands of theorising together, and is the only one to clearly link theory to practice. It will be a valuable resource for any professional working with sexual offenders, such as clinical and forensic psychologists, psychiatrists, probation officers and social workers. It will also be of interest to students of forensic and clinical psychology.

Explores how the explosion of neuroscience-based evidence in recent years has led to a fundamental change in how forensic psychology can inform working with criminal populations.This book communicates knowledge and research findings in the neurobiological field to those who work with offenders and those who design policy for offender rehabilitation and criminal justice systems, so that practice and policy can be neurobiologically informed, and research can be enhanced. Starting with an introduction to the subject of neuroscience and forensic settings, The Wiley Blackwell Handbook of Forensic Neuroscience then offers in-depth and enlightening coverage of the neurobiology of sex and sexual attraction, aggressive behavior, and emotion regulation; the neurobiological bases to risk factors for offending such as genetics, developmental, alcohol and drugs, and mental disorders; and the neurobiology of offending, including psychopathy, antisocial personality disorders, and violent and sexual offending. The book also covers rehabilitation techniques such as brain scanning, brain-based therapy for adolescents, and compassion-focused therapy.The book itself: Covers a wide array of neuroscience researchChapters by renowned neuroscientists and criminal justice expertsTopics covered include the neurobiology of aggressive behavior, the neuroscience of deception, genetic contributions to psychopathy, and neuroimaging-guided treatmentOffers conclusions for practitioners and future directions for the field.The Handbook of Forensic Neuroscience is a welcome book for all researchers, practitioners, and postgraduate students involved with forensic psychology, neuroscience, law, and criminology.

ADDRESSING THE CULTURAL DIMENSIONS OF SEXUAL AGGRESSION TREATMENT: INCLUSIVE AND EFFECTIVE APPROACHES TO OFFENDER REHABILITATION Cultural Responsivity: Treatment of Sexual Violence explores how age, gender, identity, religion, and other socio-cultural factors shape the effectiveness of treatment for individuals who have engaged in sexually aggressive behaviour. Bringing together a panel of leading experts in forensic psychology, this volume provides a comprehensive examination of the necessity for culturally responsive practices in both clinical and correctional contexts. Detailed chapters cover a diverse range of issues, from foundational principles of cultural humility to interventions tailored for specific groups, including young people, transgender individuals, and those with strong religious identities. The authors discuss practical strategies to adapt treatment approaches to meet the needs of varied populations whilst encouraging students and practitioners to consider how broader socio-cultural dynamics influence therapeutic engagement and outcomes. Offering diverse biological, psychological and cultural perspectives, Cultural Responsivity: Treatment of Sexual Violence is essential reading for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students in forensic psychology, criminology, social work, and counselling. It is also a valuable reference for professionals in clinical, forensic, and rehabilitative services who are committed to delivering culturally competent and ethically grounded interventions in the treatment of sexual aggression.

All the editors and contributors to this book are members of The University of Birmingham's 'Community and Criminal Justice Group' (BCCJ Group). The overarching theme of the book is the balance between the role of central government in creating and shaping the regulatory framework of criminal justice and the potential for communities at local level to become more involved and to exercise more responsibility for themselves in responding to crime and anti-social behaviour in their midst. These twin dynamics are explored in the two main sections of the book. In Part I (The Regulatory State) through a series of case-studies, the authors examine how the central state has sought to address the risks and problems associated with crime and anti-social behaviour in modern times. They consider the new context for law and order which arose during the period under consideration and ask how and why new sanctions were put in place to regulate particular kinds of behaviour. They also highlight some of the unintended consequences, notably the criminalisation of more people.Then in Part II (Empowered Communities as Stakeholders in Criminal Justice) the book explores the potential for local communities playing a greater role in addressing the problems of crime and anti-social behaviour in their own neighbourhoods. In this section of the book the authors also consider the prospects for crime reduction through a more 'localist' approach in which citizens and communities play a more active part in a 'big society'. The book provides a timely and topical stock-taking of key issues and challenges within criminal justice. Through an exploration of the relative strengths and limitations of 'centrist' and 'localist' approaches to tackling crime and anti-social behaviour, it also offers a prescription of principles and priorities for a way forward.
