About This Book

"Linda Gordon's history of family violence ... is based on ... the case records of social work agencies. As she investigates child abuse, child negelct, wife-beating, and incest, Gordon shows that it is not the existence of family violence that has changed, but society's attitude toward it"--back cover.
