«This book is invaluable reading for all who are committed to ending domestic abuse, sexual violence and the exploitation of women.»

«Books which seek to both understand and explain violence against women are often hard to find. This excellent collection of articles from leading figures in the fields of social work, sociology, criminology and social policy is a must read. Superbly argued, policy-relevant and thoughtfully engaged in data and theory, Nancy Lombard and Lesley McMillan's collection provides the most effective reorientation of this most important of agendas. This book should be compulsory reading for all those committed to tackling domestic abuse, sexual violence and the many gender-based forms of exploitation.»
Professor David Gadd, Director of the Centre for Criminology and Criminal Justice, Manchester Univer

«Lombard and McMillan have compiled a collection of cutting-edge, translational works by leading researchers of violence against women. Together, they provide a comprehensive analysis of gender-based violence that moves us beyond statistics to real-world applications. Students, faculty, practitioners, and most importantly, survivors of violent victimization will find value in each of these chapters.»
