Women who sexually abuse children

Front cover of Women who sexually abuse childrenBy Hannah Ford (2006)


Women who sexually abuse children is a title in the NSPCC Wiley series in safeguarding children.

Until recently, the topic of female sex offenders remained under-researched. Many incorrect assumptions and beliefs still surround the subject.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the latest research in this often overlooked area, dispelling myths by discussing what is known about the sexually abusive behaviour of women.

It discusses both adult female offenders and adolescents/younger children who commit sexual offences against children and considers a range of treatment approaches and directions for future research.

Women who sexually abuse children  is suitable for clinicians, practitioners and researchers working in the field of child sexual abuse or those working with offenders.
