Description

Providing an overview of different forms of violence against women, this second edition has been significantly updated to reflect the changes that have taken place in recent years.

Much has changed since the publication of the first edition, which is reflected throughout this new volume. It is organised thematically into three parts – men’s violence against women in relationships (Part 1), in the family (Part 2), and in public spaces (Part 3) – and every chapter has been thoroughly revised and updated. New chapters have also been added, covering sexual harassment and misconduct in the workplace, on the night-time economy including spiking, and violence against women in cyberspace. The book covers the main forms of violence against women. Looking at it from a research, policy, and practice perspective, this book widens the lens through which we view men’s violence against women.

Violence Against Women is an essential reading for social scientists who want to be up to date with cutting-edge knowledge on this topic. It is also an invaluable text for those training to enter or become qualified in the specialist domestic and sexual violence sector.
