D. Richard Laws, William T. O'Donohue, ""


Now in a fully revised and updated second edition, this important work provides authoritative scientific and applied perspectives on the full range of paraphilias and other sexual behavior problems. For each major clinical syndrome, a chapter on psychopathology and theory is followed by a chapter on assessment and treatment. Challenges in working with sex offenders are considered in depth. Thoroughly rewritten to reflect a decade of advances in the field, the second edition features many new chapters and new authors. New topics include an integrated etiological model, sexual deviance across the lifespan, Internet offenders, multiple paraphilias, neurobiological processes, the clinician as expert witness, and public health approaches.

Summary: sexual pathologies/deviance

Rating: 5

This is a very comprehensive textbook on sexual deviance and pathologies. It poignantly indicates how we have circumscribed our therapies for sex offenders, without a real quest for what actually works to reduce recidivism in the future. It is my opinion that we need to test therapeutic modalities for sexual deviance more to ascertain what really works, instead of simply throwing funds into programs without closely tracking results. Apparently, we need much more follow-up and longitudinal studies to develop an accurate perspective of a program's efficacy in terms of reducing reoffense.

Dr. Laws commences the book with strong criticism of some of our current research methodologies and practices. Mental health professionals undoubtedly need to exercise more scientific rigor, especially with this hot button topic. A California program for sex offenders was referenced and rigorously critiqued for its shortcomings. Should the California model be adopted as a national standard notwithstanding its obvious lack of demonstrable success?
