In a responsible yet impassioned tone, this book confronts the subject of familial violence. By inviting introspection, it presents an excellent opportunity for reflection and changing patterns of behavior that cannot benefit either personal relationships or social behavior. Discussions of types of violence, causes of familial violence, guides to understanding the relationship between masculinity and violence, and suggested solutions are included. Each chapter concludes with a survey that will assist the reader's personal work.
