Book Synopsis Feminist Perspectives on Wife Abuse by : Kersti Yllo
Book excerpt: The articles in this collection discuss recent research on violence against women. They are premised on the notion that gender inequality is the source of such violence, and that the social institutions of marriage and family are special contexts that may promote, maintain, and even support men's use of physical force against women.
