Nancy Lombard is Reader in Social Policy and Sociology at Glasgow Caledonian University, UK.

’This is far and away the best book I’ve read about young people and VAW. Nancy Lombard brings the children she talked with to life, listening closely to what they say and think as she tracks the evolving interplay of their attitudes towards violence and abuse and the formation of gender identities. A must read for educators, social service professionals and anyone concerned with the transmission of gender-based violence across generations.’ Evan Stark, Rutgers University, USA ’Bringing together feminist theory and childhood studies, this book is a unique and meticulous study of children and young people’s perceptions of gender and domestic violence. An important message for teachers, parents and professionals in children’s services is that young people’s understandings are temporal and transitory so unhelpful beliefs condoning domestic violence are preventable and changeable.’ Lorraine Radford, University of Central Lancashire, UK
