Drawing on the contributions of criminal justice practitioners and academic theorists, this volume offers a comprehensive, interdisciplinary study of domestic violence. It explores the phenomenon across different cultures and sexual orientations, examines child abuse and the response of child welfare agencies, and discusses the connection between domestic violence and homelessness and drug abuse. Other topics include spousal violence among police officers, orders of protection, court-ordered treatment, the prosecution and defense of those charged with domestic violence, and the history of domestic violence policy. The book also discusses creating campaigns for domestic violence prevention.
