Book - Child
"This new Current Controversies title examines violence in the home, mainly against spouses and children, but also against the elderly and gay and lesbian partners. Organized into four areas--victims, prevalence, causes, and ways to reduce the problem--the various essays reflect a number of different views on the subject. Can churches do more outreach to victims? Do flawed studies about the extent of violence create inaccurate perceptions of the problem? The 19 selections, mainly magazine articles and book excerpts (most from the last five years, though a few are not dated), do justice to the complexity of the issues." -From Booklist
