The text emphasizes rape and sexual offenses against children and society's responses through the criminal justice system, including enforcement and investigation, the courts, corrections, and post-punishment treatment. Up-to-date information, statistics, and research assessments include imprisonment, historical punishments, recidivism, registration and notification requirements (SORN), residence restrictions, civil commitments, and treatment. The impact of sex offenses on victims' lives is treated in depth, as are possible directions for future policies to better address the threat posed by sex offenders. Students reading this book will get a true sense of the U.S. sex offender problem, the responses of the criminal justice system, and what can be done to further decrease the incidence of sex offending. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e New to the Second Edition: \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e A fresh examination of sexual harassment in the workplace in light of the #MeToo movement. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Incorporation throughout the book of the etiology of sexual harassment. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e In-depth consideration of why sexual harassment is not handled through the criminal justice system as a criminal offense. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Updated literature, research, and statistics on sex crimes and criminal justice processing. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e New example stories that highlight more recent real-world instances of sex crimes and criminal justice responses to sex crimes. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Professors and students will benefit from: \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e An overview of sex offenses in the United States covers major theories to account for sex offending, legal statutes defining sex crimes, types of sex offenses and offenders, sex crime victims' characteristics, policing of sex crimes, and society's responses to sex crimes (including registries, residence restrictions, civil commitments, and treatment). \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e A focus on sex offenses through the criminal justice system framework examines the pros and cons of various strategies, including criminal statutes, law enforcement and court processing approaches, and correctional techniques for treating or warehousing sex offenders. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Real-world narratives in each chapter illustrate and provide a practical perspective on the complexity and impact of the sex offense under discussion for society, perpetrator, and victim. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Accessibly written chapters include learning objectives, lists of key terms, exercises, and essay questions for review and information retention. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sean Maddan, Lynn Pazzani\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1543817599\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781543817591\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Aspen Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/14\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 374\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 8.00w x 0.78d","brand":"Sean Maddan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44080307241215,"sku":"9781543817591","price":146.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fa6c36a4-dcc8-411a-9300-edc09eb9a2d1.jpg?v=1685486092","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sex-offenders-sean-maddan-9781543817591","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
