| Summary: | Compelling and compassionate, this book explores why and how families become abusive and offers the wisdom and knowledge needed to understand both the abuser and the victim. Understanding Abusive Families takes a developmental approach - tracing the change in the dynamics of abuse from infancy through childhood to adolescence - and clearly explains the internal and external pressures that contribute to maltreatment. The authors also explore the interdependence of individuals, families, and society and provide a much needed ecological perspective on abuse.
