From the reviews: "Loue provides a basis resource for students, clinicians, and researchers who work in areas related to intimate partner violence. Writing clearly and communicating effectively the points that she wishes to make, the author makes extensive use of direct quotes from case histories and draws on a broad range of empirical studies, including studies from other cultures. Condensed coverage of the various areas of interest makes the work a suitable quick reference. Well referenced and adequately indexed. Recommended for libraries that seek to provide extensive resources to departments for counseling, social work, and women's studies." (Choice, 38:9, 2001)
