Reviews

Finally, a truly superb volume on the topic of sexual assault. I highly recommend it. There are valuable pieces for everyone here—students, scholars, and those wanting to learn more about the subject of rape and sexual aggression, its impract on victims, and strategies for change.
*Demie Kurz, University of Pennsylvania*

This anthology serves up the leading experts and most engaging voices. Confronting Rape and Sexual Assault will be a useful primer for students, health care workers, law enforcement officials, and public policymakers. I anticipate that it will quickly become the standard reference work on the subject because of its thorough coverage.
*Ginny Daley, Duke University Libraries*

An excellent text that should be required reading for anyone interested in the issue. Sexual violence is placed in an institutional and cultural context, and the intersections of sexual assault and race, ethnicity, and gender are explored.
*Jennifer Dritt, vice president of Education, National Coalition Against Sexual Assault*
