- Summary
- "From sexual abuse and fetishism to necrophilia and sadomasochism, Forensic and Medico-legal Aspects of Sexual Crime and Unusual Sexual Practices identifies fourteen classifications of sexual pathologies. The book presents detailed comparisons of legal and medical definitions, historical aspects, current incidence, and geographical prevalence, as well as potential causes, etiological theories, and psychopathology. It examines various case studies in the context of international legislation. Highlighting the cross-cultural nature of the forensic aspects of human sexuality and joining the physical and psychological aspects of sexuality itself, this unique book also covers minor sexual offenses such as coprolalia and troilism."--BOOK JACKET.
