This book examines sex offenders' perspectives of the way they are treated and managed. It is based around in-depth interviews with 32 convicted male sex offenders, providing a remarkable insight into offenders' perceptions of initiatives designed to both treat and control their risk of future offending. It then goes on to evaluate the effectiveness of such schemes.
