Publisher Comments:
Legal and mental health experts explore the ramifications of the controversial sexual predator commitment laws, registration and community notification laws, and chemical castration laws that have come into existence in the past dozen years. These new legal strategies raise serious constitutional questions regarding the rights of those who have served their punishment. Perhaps more important is the question of whether these programs are actually effective in preventing sexual recidivism.
Book News Annotation:
Ranging between critical and supportive, 18 papers examine the legal, ethical, social, and psychological issues arising from the current wave of "sexual predator" laws in the United States. Presented by Winick (U. of Miami School of Law) and La Fond (U. of Missouri-Kansas City School of Law), the papers first summarize the laws, the policy perspectives behind them, and the state of knowledge sexual offender risk and treatment modalities. They then turn their attention to varying perspectives on the recent Supreme Court decision () that allows for the civil commitment of sexual offenders after they have served their criminal sentences. Other strategies, such as offender registration, chemical castration, and preventive treatment are also critically examined. Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
