Riassunto

Intimate Partner Violence is a resource for a wide range of professionals who work with children and families. Contents include contemporary concepts and research on the prevalence, nature, causes, and impact of IPV - a pervasive problem in our society that affects adults and children and crosses all socioeconomic, racial, and ethnic boundaries. Intimate Partner Violence addresses not only the initial impact on the victims, but also the consequences IPV has in later life and in subsequent generations as learned behaviors lead to a cycle of family violence. This book is intended as a general overview and an accessible guide that can be quickly read and referenced for lay professionals, counselors, and families rather than as a comprehensive reference for medical and technical professionals.
