Representing an entirely new approach to domestic violence
interventions, this book is based on data accumulated by the
authors over the past 12 years from a series of qualitative
studies, clinical practice with battered women and their batterers,
and as champions of the cause of battered women. After 25 years,
practitioners in the field are starting to question the original
models of intervention. Both types of practitioners and settings
for service are expanding rapidly. The approach advocated in this
book is likely to become an important part of a new wave of
alternatives available to practitioners in the coming years. This
accessible, practical volume describes and analyzes the experience
of violence in dyadic life by focussing on couples who choose to
remain together in spite of violence, while trying to make sense of
a life in the shadow of pain, guilt, terror, and humiliation.
