Sex Offender Treatment
A Case Study Approach to Issues and Interventions

The students and new practitioners I supervise consistently tell me that the greatest benefits come from direct observation of client interactions with myself or other experienced clinicians.  This book is like providing readers with a window into the therapy rooms of the best clinicians in the business.  It makes the research both accessible and practical, but more importantly real for front line service providers.  Clinicians both new and experienced will benefit from a peek into the treatment secrets of this group of experts.—Dr. Yolanda Fernandez, Chief Institutional Mental Health Services, Kingston Penitentiary, Canada

I would say his books/papers demonstrate that he has made an outstanding contribution in the forensic and clinical fields of psychology. In fact his latest edited book: Sex Offender Treatment: A Case Study Approach to Issues and Interventions (Wiley) is destined to be a classic in the field.—Anthony Beech, DPhil, FBPsS, Chartered Psychologist, University of Birmingham
