Review
Well-researched, Phil Rich critically reviews in Section I the current knowledge and research base on Juvenile Sexual Offenders. Section II, emphasises one of the most important topics when working with Juvenile Sex Offenders, that is, the assessment of risk and inherent difficulties in assessing risk of recidivism in juveniles who sexually abuse. Section II introduces the rationale, application and usefulness of Stetson's/Phil Rich's own Structured Clinical Assessment Tool. Finally, in Section III, the author approaches treatment and intervention with juvenile sexual abusers, providing a general overview of forensic mental health treatment from pharmacology to psychotherapy, and then more specific and offence-related work with the client group, advocating an eclectic as well as holistic approach to treatment and rehabilitation of the young offenders.
In sum, "Understanding, Assessing, and Rehabilitating Juvenile Sexual Offenders" is an enjoyable read, with the only critique being the use of the term "kids". Maybe this is an American versus British English thing, but it seems too colloquial a word for the nature of the book and the professional audience it is aimed at.
"...an essential resource for any professional working with juvenile sex offenders..." (Child Right, Jan/Feb 2004)

Review
—Tony Ward, MA, Ph.D., DipClinPsy, Victoria University of 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."
—W. L. Marshall, OC, FRSC, Ph.D., Director, Rockwood 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 Programs of Maine 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."
