Rich in scholarly references and case materials, Family Violence in the United States: Defining, Understanding, and Combating Abuse, Second Edition by Denise A. Hines, Kathleen Malley-Morrison, and Leila B. Dutton is a thought-provoking book that encourages students to question assumptions, evaluate information, formulate hypotheses, and design solutions to problems of family violence in the United States. Using an ecological framework, the authors provide an informative discussion not only of the most well-recognized forms of maltreatment in families, but also of less understood and more controversial issues such as the maltreatment of male partners, of parents, and within LGBT relationships. It reviews and evaluates major efforts at intervention and prevention.
