Issues in Intimate Violence

"Issues in Intimate Violence" by Raquel Kennedy Bergen, published by SAGE Publications, Inc. This volume provides the basis for understanding a wide range of interpersonal violence: child abuse; incest; violence in heterosexual, gay and lesbian relationships; acquaintance rape; wife abuse and rape; and elder abuse. There is no single accepted explanation for interpersonal violence, and the chapters reflect this by representing a number of disciplines from both theoretical and applied viewpoints. Many chapters take a feminist perspective, addressing the gendered nature of violence. Book details: 328 pages, published 1998. Order now on BookShops.in with fast, reliable delivery across India.
