Title: Violence in New Zealand
Description: "Violence runs like a dark stain through the fabric of New Zealand life. But it is not indelible. The Ritchies bring together everything we know about violence in New Zealand, in order to understand or reduce it. Jane and James Ritchie are well known for their pioneering work in social change. Here they look at the origins of violence -- psychological, institutional, and social -- and its consequences in New Zealand society. Their recommendations for change are based on thorough research and a deep understanding of the problems facing New Zealanders today." -- Back cover.
