Description

"Practitioners in the rapidly expanding field of domestic violence are in need of better alternatives and more contemporary solutions to help modern couples cope with the reality of violence. The authors closely examine the lives of those directly affected by domestic violence and outline specific guidelines for intervention. Based on data from the last 12 years of qualitative studies and clinical practice, this book focuses on couples who have chosen to remain together in spite of the violence enveloping their relationships. The approach advocated in this book is likely to become an important part of a new wave of alternatives available to practitioners in the coming years."--Jacket.
