| Written by Julianne Momirov and Ann Duffy. Published by James Lorimer & Company Ltd., 2011. Description: |
| Family violence is a
subject many people find hard to understand. The fact that we are more likely
to be killed or assaulted by family members than anyone else in our society
often seems incredible. Yet the family is often a dangerous place, far from the
haven of love and security that we would like to believe. In this completely updated second edition, sociologists Julianne Momirov and Ann Duffy explore the many faces of family violence, from physical abuse to emotional deprivation. The victims, the theories, and the factors increasing risk are all clearly presented. Solutions crossing a number of fronts from personal intervention to institutional reforms are also outlined. Family Violence is the definitive Canadian book for anyone wanting to learn more about this disturbing phenomenon. Contents:
