This book addresses not the violence but our responses or lack of responses to that violation of personal integrity and the accompanying trauma. How partner violence is responded to, individually and collectively, may well determine whether the violence can be prevented or will cease once begun. This text is intended to serve as a basic resource for the student, clinician and researcher. It provides a summary of how we have responded to such violence in the past and presents potential future directions for research and prevention efforts.Women's Health IssuesMarital violenceStatistics.lcgftMarital violence.362.8292Loue Sana846576United States.Office of Justice Programs.Office for Victims of Crime,MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910693549603321Intimate partner violence3183302UNINA
