Book Description

ISBN-10: 1560322179 | ISBN-13: 978-1560322177 | Publication Date: August 1, 1991 | Edition: 1

Forming the basis of this work are papers presented at an April 1990 conference held in Indianapolis, Indiana, USA (Violence against Women: Implications for the Mental Health Research Agenda and Clinical Practice). Like that conference, this book unites nurse researchers with combined expertise in woman abuse and the disciplines of anthropology, law, psychology and nursing. Linked by a strong feminist framework, the book expands the research focus beyond the target and perpetrator to include the context violence (physical, sexual, domestic, pregnancy, childhood). The writers demonstrate that this issue is an international problem. Nursing is shown to be in a position to make a substantial contribution to decreasing the abuse of women through papers grouped in three sections: implications for nursing research agenda, implications for nursing education and implications for nursing practice. All those involved in or concerned with this crisis should find this text useful.
