This is a very strong and useful book that provides a clear and incisive analysis of what survivors of abuse need compared to what the system typically provides, and what public policy prescribes. The sections on social and economic sabotage by abusers, and how these render specialized services for survivors irrelevant, are illuminating. --<b>David Adams</b>, co-founder and co-director of Emerge and author of <i>Why Do They Kill? Men Who Murder Their Intimate Partners</i>
