A vital road map, Assessment of Sexual Offenders Against Children steers you to the most current knowledge available on the subject in a compact, accessible form. Learn from this resource what characteristics do and do not distinguish child molesters, what situational factors are related to molestation, what instruments are used in the assessment of child molesters, how assessment information is used to appraise risk and guide treatment, and elements of a useful assessment report.

But not only does this APSAC Study Guide provide a high-level introduction to assessment of sexual offenders, it also offers you special savings. For only $95.00 you can use this guide to study the literature to earn six continuing education units in your field!* A conference providing similar information would cost on the order of $600 for airfare, hotel, registration, and so on, but you pay only $95.00 for the APSAC Study Guide.
