From Child Sexual Abuse to Adult Sexual Risk

Published USA, 2004
An emerging body of literature suggests that children who experience sexual violence may be vulnerable to many negative reproductive and sexual health problems as adults. These problems include unwanted pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases, HIV infection, and adult sexual violence. In this volume, leading researchers and clinicians integrate research from a variety of disciplines - including epidemiology, traumatology and prevention science - to bridge the current scientific literatures on child sexual abuse, basic trauma research and clinical practice.

Contributors include John Briere, Jennifer Freyd, Steven Lynn, James Pennebaker and David Spiegel.
