Description
While the key actor in the incestuous family has been generally condemned from all sides, the contributors to this book insist that the treatment community is under the same obligation to the incest perpetrator as to any other member of the community. Using a direct, practical approach based on an extensive research programme, they provide a basic profile of the incest perpetrator, treatment guidelines and referral options, and future implications for research and practice.
Experts in criminal justice and clinical treatment join forces with perpetrators to unravel the critical issues of remedial concern, including legal and ethical issues. Throughout, the emphasis is on help and corrections. The volume is directed at trained therapists and students of the helping professions and will also be an important resource book for all mental health, correctional, and self-help treatment facilities with incest offenders in their populations.
