Product Description:
Violence against women is a centuries-old problem, but scholarly discussion has centered on this topic only in recent decades. This explosion of information clearly demonstrates the need for a comprehensive analysis of the complex theoretical, methodological, and ethical issues surrounding this still-controversial area. Editors Claire M. Renzetti, Jeffrey L. Edleson, and Raquel Kennedy Bergen fill this void with the Sourcebook on Violence Against Women, original scholarly writings that extensively cover current research on violence against women. The four parts of this volume examine theoretical and methodological issues in research, types of violence, prevention and direct intervention, and continuing and emerging issues in domestic and international public policy. As a comprehensive information source on violence against women, this book is an unsurpassed resource for students, practitioners, and academics. |
