This selective, annotated bibliography provides guidance to the source and content of a small proportion of the existing publicity about rape, Non-English-language publications, as well as those receiving only limited distribution, are excluded. All materials are recent, most having been published during the 1970's. Outdated materials, such as those on rape laws which were superseded by statutory changes, are excluded. Most materials were issued by sources generally labeled "learned," such as scholarly books and professional journals. A total of 153 entries are included, under headings such as Sociocultural and Descriptive Features of Rape, Legal Issues and Legislative Reform, and Investigation of Rape. A brief review of relevant literature precedes the bibliography. (Author/BP)
