Paedophiles exist and we must develop ways of living with this fact while keeping children safe. This ground-breaking book demystifies the field of adult sexual attraction to children, countering the emotionality surrounding the topic of paedophilia in the popular media by careful presentation of research data and interview material. Addressing how we can work together to reduce sexual offending in this population, this book bridges the gap in understanding between those who want to protect children and those who feel sexual attraction to children - and recognizes that they are sometimes the same people.
