Summary "This book investigates the interplay of psychological and physical aggression between partners. It examines the history of research in this area; discusses new, cutting-edge studies; and suggests promising applications in clinical settings. Different levels of severity and types of aggression are explored, illustrating that for both risk factors and interventions, "one size does not fit all." The three major parts of the book focus on prevalence, etiology, and intervention"--Jacket flap.
