Sexual assault can be considered as expression of aggression through sex. This, in turn, can have serious negative effects on a survivor’s social and occupational functioning. This book has been organized towards that specific approach, by compiling the scientific work of very well-known scientists from all over the world. The psychological victimization of sexual assault, the physiological aspect of sexual abuse and the different attitudes in coping with sexual assault based on different cultural backgrounds are analyzed. Having in mind that one solution may not necessarily be suitable for all cases, we hope that this book will open a debate on sexual assault for future practice and policy and that it will be a step forward to ‘break the silence’.

The approach of this book is a humanistic one that characterizes the individual suffering from paraphilia as a human being. With this perspective in mind, the author posits that any sexual offender who has a history of childhood trauma needs to be treated not only for the sexual offenses, but also for past trauma. Consisting of eight chapters, the first chapter addresses the issues of paraphilias and their sexual offense behavior. Chapter 2 focuses on typology and characteristics of pedophiliacs and rapists. Chapter 3 details the issues of sexual offense and hypersexuality in elderly males. Ch

Most sex offenders will eventually be released from incarceration and will need to reintegrate into society. It is, consequently, critical to understand what motivates individuals to commit sexual offenses, what reduces the likelihood of recidivism, and the best method of managing and supervising sex offenders in the community.

"Em 1994, aos vinte e cinco anos de idade, quando o terrível "despedaçamento que vem com a agressão sexual" dobrou-se profundamente em seu corpo e pensamentos de suicídio estavam sempre por perto, Erin Manning escreveu A Manga Perfeita num estado quase febril: dezenove capítulos em dezenove dias, uma especie de operação de auto-resgate, onde a escrita tornou-se uma maneira de fazer (e sentir) a vida de outra forma. Ao longo desses dezenove dias, e embora não capaz de articular completamente para si mesma na epoca, Manning escreveu-se para dentro "de uma composição que pergunta de que outra forma a vida poderia ser vivida". E nos ritmos dessa composição, que era tambem uma vida, Manning foi e e capaz de recusar a categoria e norma e imobilidade da "vítima" (enquanto ainda compreende as heranças da violência) a fim de seguir em vez disso o mais-que-eu assim como a alegria do "mais-que da experiência no fazer" Vinte e cinco anos depois, Manning permite que esses escritos anteriores encontrem seu caminho de volta ao mundo, o que e uma maneira de dar "voz a esses momentos de sobrevivência confusos" enquanto tambem pede a nós, que compartilhamos (e ajudamos a suportar) tais momentos enquanto leitores, que consideremos "outras formas de escutar a urgência que e viver". Republicar o livro agora e dar-lhe um lugar no mundo de uma maneira que honre sua força como algo que está sempre alem da reivindicação de qualquer um, mesmo de Manning. Nesse sentido, A Manga Perfeita nos convida, com Manning, a estar em excesso de nós mesmos, e tambem a considerarmos, nas palavras de Manning, "como criar condições para viver alem da crença feroz do humanismo de que nós, os privilegiados, os neurotípicos, os ainda incólumes, os corpos-capazes, e que guardamos a chave para todas as perspectivas no teatro da vida". Por fim, A Manga Perfeita e as reflexões de Manning a respeito de sua composição pedem que consideremos "viver na feroz celebração de um mundo inventado por esses modos de vida que rasgam o tecido colonial, branco, neurotípico da vida como a conhecemos.""
