Summary:"This book examines what we know--and what we do not know--about sex offenders, victims, and sex crimes. It attempts to determine whether the current wisdom on which recently passed laws in the U.S. are based is accurate. Enough time has passed since these laws were first enacted to see whether they work and are cost-effective. In short, the author examines the new weapons being used to fight sex offenders and then discuss what we should--and should not--do to win this war. This book covers a broad range of issues, including state-of-the-art research on sex offenders, sex crimes, and victims; cutting-edge constitutional analysis of new laws; and intensive public policy evaluation"--Create.
