Descripciones mejoradas de Syndetics:
Detailing the domestic violence suffered by the first author during her 16 year marriage, this moving volume details the background and events leading up to and immediately following Beth Sipe′s tragic act of desperation: ending the life of the perpetrator.
Encouraged to publish her story by her therapist and co-author, Evelyn Hall, Sipe relates how her case was mishandled by the police, the military, a mental health professional and the welfare system, illustrating how women like herself are further victimized and neglected by the very systems that are expected to provide assistance. Her story is followed by seven commentaries by experts in the field. They discuss: the causes and process of spousal abuse; the reasons why battered women stay; and the dynamic consequences of domestic violence.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 294-298).
