Product Description

Domestic violence is a significant social problem mostly committed by men against women and children. This book details research, policy and practice perspectives on intervention with male perpetrators of domestic violence in Australia. The main theme of the book is the need for integrated service responses to domestic violence. This emphasises the importance of formal partnerships across organisations in criminal justice (e.g. police and correctional services), courts, victim services (e.g. women's services), child protection, health, and associated community services. "Domestic Violence - Working With Men" provides a timely resource in the development of programs and services that are successful in reducing the risk of known perpetrators committing further acts of violence towards women. This book will be of interest to social workers, psychologists, and others from a social science or policy background. The book provides an important reference for practitioners, policy makers, students and academics wanting an overview of contemporary responses to domestic violence.
