From this work we can improve our threat assessment and offer better information for victims.--Deborah D. Tucker, Executive Director, National Center on Domestic and Sexual ViolenceDavid Adams's interviews with 31 men who killed intimate female partners break new ground in the study of domestic violence and homicide. . . . The killings emerge as neither random, nor spontaneous. Rather, these tragedies are steeped in a complex mélange of biography, social forces, and the immediacies and practicalities of human violence. A compelling read.--Neil Websdale, author ofUnderstanding Domestic Homicide
