Have recent U.S. and Canadian reforms changed institutional responses to the crime of rape and the treatment of rape victims? This collection of 14 papers presents multi-disciplinary perspectives on the following topics: the effectiveness of rape law reforms; debating "chemical castration"; the policing of sexual violence; "cyber rape"; the role of sexual assault treatment programs; sexual assault among prisoners; the measurement of rape; "Megan's Law" and crime control; and revisiting sex offender registration.

Contributors include: Frances P. Bernat, Suzette Cote, Charles Crawford, Giannetta Del Bove, Margaret E. Denike, Robert E. Freeman-Longo, Craig T. Palmer, Vivian B Lord, Elizabethann O'Sullivan, K. Edward Renner and Livy A. Visano, among others.
