Review
`...a concise overview of the most salient and contemporary aspects of this emerging social problem. High-risk sexual behavior is discussed in terms of mediating and moderating factors... The strength of the text lies in its clear and precise explication of this complex topic. ...it succeeds in summarizing by way of the biopsychosocial model, many of the underlying assumptions associated with high-risk sexual behavior. It thus provides an informative primer for students, practitioners, researchers, and policy makers alike.'
READINGS (March 1999)
`In summary, this book will give the reader an excellent understanding of the importance of intervening at a public-health level to reduce high-risk sexual activity and of the models that have shown promise in doing so.'
Psychiatric Services, 50:9 (September 1999)
