Beschreibung
Aggressive Offenders' Cognition: Theory, Research and Treatment is the first book in its field to comprehensively examine offenders' social cognition. Focusing specifically on aggressive offenders, the book collates the theory, research and practice relating to offenders' social cognition in one authoritative volume.

The book addresses two different categories of aggressive offender. The first part of the book addresses sexual abusers, identifying theory, research and practice related to child sexual abusers' as well as rapists' social cognition. The second part focuses on theory, research and treatment-related information specific to violent offenders. This subdivision of content offers readers a source of reference on offenders' cognition that is context-specific, and focussed.

Aggressive Offenders' Cognition: Theory, Research and Treatment is an invaluable source of reference as well as a practical handbook for professionals working with offenders, especially clinical forensic psychologists.
