Opis

What constitutes normal sexual behaviour in children? What is sexualized behaviour? How do children disclose their experiences of child sexual abuse? How do we assess child sexual abuse? What are the long term consequences of child sexual abuse? This book answers these and many more questions about child sexual abuse. Despite major advances in research and practice within the field, misconceptions remain that may have significant impacts on the recognition, understanding and investigation of child sexual abuse. This book provides an evidence-based examination of the key issues and includes examples and case studies that bring the issues alive for both students and professionals.
