2.0 out of 5 stars Battered Woman Syndrome, May 15, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Battered Woman Syndrome: 2nd Edition (Springer Series, Focus on Women) (Hardcover)
This book is an attempt by the author to update her earlier book "The Battered Woman". That book was ground-breaking by describing histories of patients in the 1970's - 1980's before the term "battered woman" was generally accepted. I read the older book first, started this new book and only got 1/3 of the way. Much of the information was too similar to the first book. Also, this book seemed written more 'clinically and dry' than her first book. I would recommend you only read one of these books. When I get through this second one, I will write back and update. But as of now, I would recommend her first book.
