Domestic Abuse Hanson

Domestic abuse is a global problem and as such whilst the statistics cited in the book are specific to the UK, the different forms of abuse discussed are not. This book is a useful insight into the world of domestic abuse regardless of gender or geographical location. The aim is twofold. Firstly it is to raise awareness that men can be victims too. Secondly it is to provide an insight into what abuse looks like to help people identify at an early stage whether they may be in an abusive relationship. Domestic Abuse: Men Suffer Too does not serve to cause a further divide between the genders, but to address the existing divide and ask the question of whether we need solidarity not division when it comes to tackling domestic abuse.
