Voices of Intimate Partner Homicide

An Exploration of Coercive Control and Lethality
By Donna J. King
In the United States, and most parts of the world, law, policy, policing, and prevention work addressing domestic and intimate partner violence is created and enacted based on a violence model. Voices of Intimate Partner Homicide takes a critical look at these misconceived notions and sheds light on multiple non-violent forms of controlling behavior that precipitate intimate partner homicide. Practitioners, advocates, researchers, and students will find this text valuable in their research and understanding of Intimate Partner Violence and Homicide.
