In Sex Offenders, The Institute for Sex Research continues the work begun with the publication, in 1948, of the first Kinsey Report, Sexual Behavior in the Human Male. Of the original research team, only Mr. Pomeroy remains. The work, too, has changed, and for the better. Sex Offenders is a more sophisticated book than its predecessors, especially in its explicit analysis of its own methodological problems.
