aus dem Nachlass des schweizerischen Psychiaters und Analytikers Ewald Bohm (1903-1980) mit seiner Signatur im Vorsatz, Verfasser von z. B. "Lehrbuch der Rorschach-Psychodiagnostik" "This book is bound to become the firstranking contemporary treatise on seхual deviations. It is rich in content, dynamic in its approach, authoritative without over trying to be authoritarian. This is not just another volume on "Sex" but a clearly organized and adequately illustrated presentation of the psychopathology of persons whose conflicts are externalized in the form of various departures from the socially accepted patterns of Sexual behavior. Ample experience, hard work, and literary skill have combined to produce a book of which the authors should be proud and which should be welcome to the profession." (LEO KANNER, M.D.)"Popular indignation over sex crimes, and the hush-hush attitude toward discussion of sex matters which still prevails rather widely, have retarded the progress that should have been made before now in studying and dealing with seх offenders as victims of another form of illness. Governor G. Mennen William of Michigan recently has appointed a commission to look into this matter, and the State Bar of Michigan and the Michigan State Medical Society have appointed cooperating committees. The result should be not only better justice for defendants in sex cases, but information which may be used in a preventive way to keep such persons from becoming dangerous or having opportunity to commit crime." (GLENN R. WINTERS).
