Review # 1 was written on 2012-09-26 00:00:00 Willy Whyn Although the statistics in this book are outdated, the problem is still alive and well in societies around the world. It seems since the OJ Simpson trial, domestic violence in the US seems to be taken a little more seriously. It is amazing to see the how the laws can be misconstrued and leave women in a bad state in regards to abuse. There is still much work to be done to tear down antiquated mindsets and funding for mental health issues are a must if society as a whole is to come to some sort of healing for this problem. I kept reading asking, "Is this real?" and women are still plagued with the same reasoning from 25 years ago as to why they stay in these types of relationships. It is still taboo, and families are still fractured as a result.
