This book makes an important contribution to the international
understanding of domestic violence and shares the latest knowledge
of what causes and sustains domestic violence between intimate
partners, as well as the effectiveness of responses in working with
adult and child victims, and those who act abusively towards their
partners. Drawing upon a wide range of contemporary research from
across the globe, it recognises that domestic violence is both
universal, but also shaped by local cultures and contexts. Divided
into seven parts: * Introduction. * Theoretical perspectives on
domestic violence and abuse. * Domestic violence and abuse across
the life-course. * Manifestations of domestic violence and abuse. *
Responding to domestic violence and abuse. * Researching domestic
violence and abuse. * Concluding thoughts. It will be of interest
to all academics and students working in social work, allied
health, sociology, criminology and gender studies as well as policy
professionals looking for new approaches to the subject.
