Book Description
WHY CASTRATION WON'T WORK Many times, you will hear people say, "Why don't we just castrate all the sex offenders? That will do the job." But, in fact, it won't, for some very simple reasons. First, long-term studies have already shown that, in spite of all the media hype, most convicted sex offenders (up to 75% of them) do not re-offend. (Hanson, 1999). To castrate them is a waste of time. Secondly, most children are not molested by them. Most children are molested by someone they know and trust: like a friendly neighbor, down the street, or a school teacher, volunteer in some youth group or at the church. Often, unfortunately, by a relative in the family, be that an older brother, cousin, an inlaw or step-parent. Because none of them have been caught, we don't call them "sex offenders" and, as a result, 'castrating all the sex offenders' won't get them. They will still be left just as free as before. There is a better answer. Records now show that when convicted sex offenders are given exactly the kind of treatment and counseling in that is described in this book, re-offense rates are cut by 60%. (Alexander 1999). It is not terribly complicated. It isn't just a lot of theories. It is just simple, blunt honesty: making men face the reality of what they are doing, and how it is also wrecking their own lives, then training them in the steps it takes to stop doing so. That is what does it, right there. Here is the book that tells it all. In ten chapters, I relate how it happened that I became a child molester and got over it. That was almost 20 years ago now and I remain re-offense free, with no further convictions or arrests. The lessons from it that you can use to protect your children are given at the end of each chapter. If you follow them, your child will be safer than ever before. Steps that sex offenders can take to earn their way back into the community and a prescription for the healing of America conclude the work. The readers' resources section includes a listing of further books, journals, websites, referral agencies and self-recovery organizations that may also be of use to those who want more information. Fully indexed, the book will be a useful guide in all future child sex abuse trials. If you have any questions, write me at: [email protected]

Book Description
Oprah presented him to the nation. USA Today wrote up his life story. People Magazine gave him a feature article. And Jake Goldenflame was introduced to the world. Twenty years ago, he was sentenced to ten years in prison for molesting his daughter and that might have been the end of him. But, while there, he voluntarily put himself through therapy along with a demanding two-year tutorial in ethics and morality given by his prison chaplain. Released after serving his time as a model prisoner, he went on to become a public champion of Megan's Law when it went on the books, requiring the public registration of all convicted sex offenders. (Advice from a registered sex offender, San Francisco Examiner, August 18, 1997.) Reoffense-free for over a dozen years now, Goldenflame has become a role model for sex offenders who want to recover and a spokesperson to communities facing the prospect of living with them. His book tells people what they can do to help prevent every parent's worst nightmare from happening to them and how sex offenders can make their way back. Using what he learned from his past and from the sex offenders he has met in prison and since, the author gives specific suggestions that readers can use to help keep themselves and their families safe from rapists and child molesters in the streets, on the Internet or in youth organizations, as well as from repeated sexual abuse, child prostitution, incest and repeat sex offenders who move into their neighborhood. Among his insights: What's different about us is not how many times we do it but whom we go after and why. If you want your children to be the kind we would never seek, teach them self confidence. (Chapter Two) Anopportunity for healing has to be part of the sentence or it is the community that is sentenced to dealing with us when we return. (Chapter Four) There have always been men (and women) like us and there always will be. We are a recurrent sexual direction that has appeared in virtually every group of people that has ever existed... (Chapter Five) The victim of sexual abuse isn't the only one injured by it: so is the offender and the sooner the offender realizes this the sooner he will stop. (Chapter Six) The trick is to notice whose turn it is when the dance changes.(Chapter Eight) The message of this book is that you can help protect your children from being lost to a sexual predator, with no more than a personal computer and a telephone, right in your own home. In OVERCOMING SEXUAL PREDATORS, you will learn about: -- Child prostitution and how to protect your child from becoming ensnared by it, -- Signs of the incest family and what you could do to rescue its children, -- How to spot the child who may grow up to become a sex offender, -- Why there will always be sex offenders and what can be done to reform them, and -- How you and your neighbors could control the sex offender who moves into your neighborhood tonight.

Book Description
The Oklahoma City bombing, intentional crashing of airliners on September 11, 2001, and anthrax attacks in the fall of 2001 have made Americans acutely aware of the impacts of terrorism. These events and continued threats of terrorism have raised questions about the impact on the psychological health of the nation and how well the public health infrastructure is able to meet the psychological needs that will likely result. Preparing for the Psychological Consequences of Terrorism highlights some of the critical issues in responding to the psychological needs that result from terrorism and provides possible options for intervention. The committee offers an example for a public health strategy that may serve as a base from which plans to prevent and respond to the psychological consequences of a variety of terrorism events can be formulated. The report includes recommendations for the training and education of service providers, ensuring appropriate guidelines for the protection of service providers, and developing public health surveillance for preevent, event, and postevent factors related to psychological consequences.

Book Description
Since the 1990s, sexual violence in conflict zones has received much media attention. In large part as a result of grassroots feminist organizing in the 1970s and 1980s, mass rapes in the wars in the former Yugoslavia and during the Rwandan genocide received widespread coverage, and international organizations—from courts to NGOs to the UN—have engaged in systematic efforts to hold perpetrators accountable and to ameliorate the effects of wartime sexual violence. Yet many millennia of conflict preceded these developments, and we know little about the longer-term history of conflict-based sexual violence. Sexual Violence in Conflict Zones helps to fill in the historical gaps. It provides insight into subjects that are of deep concern to the human rights community, such as the aftermath of conflict-based sexual violence, legal strategies for prosecuting it, the economic functions of sexual violence, and the ways perceived religious or racial difference can create or aggravate settings of sexual danger. Essays in the volume span a broad geographic, chronological, and thematic scope, touching on the ancient world, medieval Europe, the American Revolutionary War, precolonial and colonial Africa, Muslim Central Asia, the two world wars, and the Bangladeshi War of Independence. By considering a wide variety of cases, the contributors analyze the factors making sexual violence in conflict zones more or less likely and the resulting trauma more or less devastating. Topics covered range from the experiences of victims and the motivations of perpetrators, to the relationship between wartime and peacetime sexual violence, to the historical background of the contemporary feminist-inflected human rights moment. In bringing together historical and contemporary perspectives, this wide-ranging collection provides historians and human rights activists with tools for understanding long-term consequences of sexual violence as war-ravaged societies struggle to achieve postconflict stability.
