Publisher's Synopsis
Sexual Assault: Victimization Across the Life Span is the essential desk reference for anyone treating or investigating sexual assault. Emergency room personnel, physicians, EMTs, social service agencies, judges, and law enforcement personnel will find critical information on physical examinations, proper documentation, forensic evidence (including DNA analysis), and legal issues. The special sections devoted to the unique problems of sexual victimization of each age group are also invaluable. Edited by a pediatrician, an emergency room physician, a sexual assault nurse examiner, and a gynecologist, this hard-bound guide offers the most comprehensive and up-to-date information available. It includes a supplementary CD-ROM.
