Publisher's Synopsis
This is a comprehensive analysis of the subject, defining the major sexual offences, and evaluating the legacy of recent statutes such as the Criminal Evidence Act 1992 and the Criminal Law (Sexual Offences) Act 1993. In addition, the book addresses issues of sentencing law and practice, an area previously unexplored in Irish legal literature. The book also offers an examination of sexual harassment in the workplace, as well as a study of the relationship between pornography and sexual violence. Areas in the field in need of reform are outlined.
