Praise for

Offenders, Second Edition
‘The Second Edition of Understanding, Assessing, and
Rehabilitating Juvenile Sexual Offenders showcases Phil Rich’s
experience and mastery of the research and clinical literature. In
my view, this is an excellent therapy book and, like its
predecessor, will help practitioners to work effectively and
ethically with juvenile offenders. It is destined to become a
classic.’

Wellington, Wellington, New Zealand
‘Phil Rich is considered one of the world’s leading authorities
on how best to understand, assess, and treat juvenile sexual
offenders, and this Second Edition of his excellent text
shows why he is held in such high regard. All theoreticians,
researchers, and practitioners whose work brings them in contact
with juvenile sexual offenders should definitely read this
remarkable book.’

Psychological Services, Ontario, Canada
‘Phil Rich’s book, Understanding, Assessing, and
Rehabilitating Juvenile Sexual Offenders, Second Edition offers
new and thought-provoking ideas, updates, and information,
especially on developmental pathways. This book is one of the few
publications on juvenile sexual offending that offers something new
and revealing to the field.’
–Robert E. Longo, LPC, NCC, ACS, BCIA-EEG, BCN;
Serendipity Healing Arts, Lexington, North Carolina
‘Phil Rich masterfully fills the gap in the juvenile sexual
offender treatment literature with a book that is neither
introductory nor narrowly specialized. Seasoned veterans will
appreciate his thoughtful and studied approach. Newcomers will find
this book a vital go-to resource.’
–David Prescott, LICSW, Clinical Director, Becket Family
of Services, Falmouth, Maine
‘Mind-blowingly brilliant–Rich by name and rich in depth,
detail, description, and debate. An instant classic,
Understanding, Assessing, and Rehabilitating Juvenile Sexual
Offenders, Second Edition is both comprehensive and challenging
with its material and messages, yet reassuringly accessible and
practical.’
