EDITORIAL REVIEWS


Product Description
"Mildred Pagelow's Family Violence . . . is a liberal rather than radical book. Pagelow believes that experts on family violence must have `an underlying faith in the goodness of people,' since `there will always be a majority of people who struggle against violence.' . . . Her book is encyclopedic in its coverage, presenting the data on the extent of the problem of family violence, various perspectives and explanations for family violence, child abuse and neglect, spouse abuse, other kinds of abuse, including children abusing other children and abuse of elderly parents." Women's Review of Books
