Textbook on Sex Crimes and Sex Offenders to be released

Dr. Donna Vandiver, Dr. Jeremy Braithwaite and Dr. Mark Stafford wrote the book on sex offenders. Literally. A new textbook written by these academics, titled “Sex Crimes and Sex Offenders: Theory, Research and Realities”, will be released later this month.

The textbook, which was written with students in mind, sets out to correct a lot of the misconceptions and “commonsense” myths that have been allowed to perpetuate over the years and identify what the research actually says about this topic.
