| Abstract
|
:
|
"Providing an arresting and readable overview of family violence, Understanding Family Violence presents a thorough exploration of the major types of family violence and details the range of abusive behaviors perpetrated within family systems. Focusing on prevention and intervention, chapters delineate reasons that various types of abuse continue, suggest how different types of violent behavior may be treated, and recommend prevention strategies. In addition, the author has created a comprehensive and cohesive volume by carefully defining terms at the beginning of each chapter and offering summarizing remarks, valuable references, and suggested readings at the conclusion of each chapter." "Understanding Family Violence translates theory and research into a practical format, easily accessible to both undergraduate and graduate students in areas including interpersonal violence, psychology, counseling, sociology, social work, nursing, family studies, and pastoral counseling."--Jacket
