Updated and revised, this book reviews research on the prevalence of homicide, child abuse, and domestic violence in special populations, including Blacks, Latino/Chicano and Asians. Its empirical, clinical, experiential, and narrative approaches provide the reader with a culturally integrated perspective on this controversial subject. It addresses the need for more culturally sensitive research that will result in more effective prevention and intervention efforts in the years to come. This new edition includes an updated view of the research in this area, as well as three new chapters on the Black, Maori, and Nicaraguan communities.
