The Rehabilitation of Partner-Violent Men

"In a field that too often substitutes myth for fact, Erica Bowen has written an immensely thoughtful and well-researched book ... Bowen gives a critical and balanced review of the research on incidence and typologies of DV perpetrators, changes to the criminal justice response, and theories of causality." (PsycCRITIQUES, 18 January 2012)

 

“Informed by theory and evidence, this text offers a full account of a pressing social problem”
—Professor Clive Hollin, School of Psychology, The University of Leicester

Erica Bowen's book The Rehabilitation of Partner Violent Men is a timely and important contribution to the literature of effective interventions.
—Nicola Graham-Kevan, Senior lecturer, University of central Lancashire

This is a book which clearly sets out the history, theoretical developments , interventions and possibilities for the future within a UK context. I urge all practitioners and academics with an interest in intimate partner violence to buy this book. It is an excellent source of good information about where we currently are and an excellent springboard for future developments in both research and practice.
—Liz Gilchrist, Professor of Forensic psychology, Glasgow Caledonian University
