Description

Women and children live in the shadow of violence all the time. Rape, child abuse and sexual assault, pornography, wife battery and sexual harassment are facts of everyday life in our society. In No Safe Place, all of these issues are explored for the first time in a single resource. Original articles present recent data together with incisive analyses and discussion of possible solutions. Women writers expose a frightening picture of violence against women and children-one that forces us to question the values and attitudes that form the foundation of our society.
