Importantly, Oliver Chan offers a new integrated theoretical understanding of sexual homicide offenders. Understanding Sexual Homicide Offenders: An Integrated Approach is essential reading for students at all levels of study, researchers, clinicians and law enforcement practitioners seeking a comprehensive understanding of sexual murderers.
