First published in 1985, this is the first published study of
violence in the family to be aimed directly at people whose
professions bring them into contact with domestic abuse victims, as
well as those training for those professions. It documents the
problems faced by women with violent husbands and discusses how the
needs of these women and of their children can best be met. The
first part of the book reports the results of original research
carried out by the editor. The second part of the book is concerned
with the response of the law, the police, social services, housing
departments and health services. The third part draws on the
conference at which this research was presented, and offers
recommendations for the future, in terms if better practice and of
broad social and economic changes. This book will be of interest to
students of social work, health care, medicine and law, as well as
those studying social policy, sociology and women's studies.
