Stalkers and their Victims
"This is a marvelous book, catholic in its intellectual sources, generous to other clinicians and researchers, modest in its claims-and through all that, very human.

Psychological Medicine"This is an excellent review of the recently recognized field of stalking.  The authors summarize much information difficult to find in collected form elsewhere."   Doody's Review Service"[The authors] provide readers a fairly exhaustive account of the emotional trauma of being a victim of stalking...this book should be of interest to upper-division undergraduate and graduate to criminological students of stalking as well as to researchers, faculty, victimologists, and victims' rights advocates."   Choice"This book is a beautiful illustration of what can be achieved with remarkably few resources and a genuinely academic approach to psychiatric practice...Stalkers and their Victims will undoubtedly be the definitive volume on this topic for some time to come. It is scholarly, practical, educational, and well written. It will almost certainly cross the lay-professional barrier in a way that is both revealing and dignified."   British Medical Journal"This is an excellent sourcebook for anyone with an interst in stalking...easily accessible, well illustrated with case examples, and represents an up-to-date compendium of fact, research and argument."
