Some families are dangerous environments. Most practitioners in
social work, child protection, and hospital and community medicine,
as well as the police, will know from their professional experience
the extent of spouse abuse, child abuse, sibling violence and
maltreatment of the elderly within the family setting.
Understanding family violence is the first step towards prevention.
This book deals with the nature and causes of abuse within the
family, with its prediction and assessment, and with methods for
intervention and prevention. Reflecting the research evidence of
cycles of violence and maltreatment, the book is organized as a
progressive analysis of abuse of spouses, children, siblings,
parents and family elders. The authors are both well known for
their academic and professional work with families, and have
written this book for professionals requiring a research- and
evidence-based (rather than anecdotal) guide to the problems of
family violence and to the best practice in related intervention
work with families and couples. This book is published in the Wiley
Series in Family Psychology edited by Neil Frude, University of
Wales, Cardiff.
