Book Synopsis
Although for many of us violence is something observed from the safety of our living spaces where we try to make sense of what appears to be senseless violence toward innocent victims, many human service workers and social workers confront violence-related issues every day in situations arising across every stratum of our society. This book takes a multidisciplinary perspective towards understanding and developing effective responses to violence, its prevention, and its management. It encompasses a variety of fields of practice and offers sound analysis of theories that underpin these fields along with their practice implications. Understanding Violence: Context and Practice in the Human Services is a reference for professionals, an essential resource for students and will be of interest to the wider community in explaining community responses to violence.
