Description: This volume reviews research on the prevalence of homicide, child abuse, and domestic violence in special populations, including African American, Latino/Chicano, Asian American, and Native American. Empirical, clinical, experiential, and narrative approaches provide the reader with a culturally integrated perspective of this controversial subject. Also addressed is the need for more culturally-sensitive research that would result in more effective prevention and intervention efforts in years to come.
