Customer Reviews

Great to use as a text

I used this book as a text in my Gender and Aggression seminar. It would work well in any Women's Studies or Psychology class that addresses interpersonal violence. The students found it very readable. The research cited is up to date and the research findings are presented in a framework that makes them interesting and interpretable. Frieze addresses interpersonal violence as a personal and a societal problem.

Expert info, readable

This straight-forward book presents all the latest information on family/domestic violence. Although the book is based on the latest research studies, it is readable and accessible not only to psychologists and health workers, but to all those who might have been touched by family violence.
