  • "The Domestic Assault of Women relates social and criminal justice policy to empirically tested social psychological theory about the causes and effects of wife assault. Donald G. Dutton argues that only by understanding the psychology of both the aggressors and the victims of wife assault can we generate informed social and criminal justice policy. By linking the psychological factors that support assaultive habits to police arrest policy and subsequent treatment, Dutton shows how police/therapist intervention can interrupt assaultive behaviour and prevent recidivism.This edition has been thoroughly revised to reflect current work in the field. More figures, including recently developed scales and data sets, have been added to increase its usefulness."
  • "Annotation. Duton (director, Assultive Husbands Program, Vancouver) looks at the causes and effects of wife assault and its relationship tp criminal justice policy. He explores the psychology of assaultive males and the dynamics of the victim/abuser relationship, and discusses treatment and the criminal justice response to the crime. This revised edition is updated from 1988 and includes an expanded history of famiily violence social policy, plus new chapters on traumatic bonding and the battered-women syndrome. Of interest to professionals. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or."
