The ACASSA newsletter 'Aware' n.15 contains as its feature
item a literature review, 'Perspectives on the treatment of men and
boys who sexually abuse'. It focuses directly on therapy and
interventions with adults, boys and young men, but its author, Cameron
Boyd, is aware of the problematic nature of approaches to this field.
He sets out 'to highlight the relevance of a feminist-informed gender
analysis of sexual offending' explaining that the challenge for
treatment providers and researchers is 'to build upon these insights in
working with boys and men who sexually abuse'. See: http://www.aifs.gov.au/acssa/pubs/newsletter/n15.html#perspectives
