Understanding Gender-Based Violence
This edited book brings together the voices and insights of survivors, practitioners, educators and researchers working to prevent and minimise the harms of gender-based violence, with a specific focus on equipping health professionals and social workers to support victim-survivors. Practitioners can, and often do, play a critical role supporting victim-survivors of gender-based violence; however, this work has historically been carried out by those in specialist roles and there remains gaps and inconsistencies in education and training for qualifying and post-qualified professionals. This book makes a valuable contribution to addressing these gaps. It provides practitioners with a comprehen...
The Antisocial Mind
In this book, Professor Ghahreman Khodadad illuminates the basis of human behavior by examining the structures that underline antisociality. The book’s central thesis is that antisocial people are so thanks to biological and neurological structures. The principle of structure to function is used to argue that the brain, without us being conscious of it, produces our behaviors. If this claim is correct, then antisocial individuals are not accountable for their antisocial behavior, and they should be treated respectfully instead of being punished. Furthermore, prisons should accordingly be converted into rehabilitation, treatment, and behavioral research centers. This is a book for the general reader who is interested in the basis of human behavior. It should also be of interest to psychologists, psychiatrists, neuroscientists, geneticists, neurobiologists, and philosophers.

The Limits of Consent
This open access book examines the ways that consent operates in contemporary culture, suggesting it is a useful starting point to respectful relationships. This work, however, seeks to delve deeper, into the more complicated aspects of sexual consent. It examines the ways meaningful consent is difficult, if not impossible, in relationships that involve intimate partner violence or family violence. It considers the way vulnerable communities need access to information on consent. It highlights the difficulties of consent and reproductive rights, including the use (and abuse) of contraception and abortion. Finally, it considers the ways that young women are reshaping narratives of sexual assault and consent, as active agents both online and offline. Though this work considers victimisation, it also pays careful attention to the ways vulnerable groups take up their rights and understand and practice consent in meaningful ways.
Practitioner's Guide to Empirically Supported Measures of Anger, Aggression, and Violence
This book contains three sections. Part I includes an introductory chapter and an applied chapter on conducting a risk assessment. Part II provides a description of how the measures were organized and quick-view tables that provide easy access to measures with enough information to allow for an estimate of the likelihood that reading additional information about a particular measure would prove fruitful. Measures are organized alphabetically into tables for measures of anger, aggression, or violence. Each of the tables provides the name of the measure, the purpose for which the measure was developed, and the targeted population. The tables also provide information on the method of assessment, the amount of time required to use the measure, and the page number where additional information is available. Part II also contains the review of each measure. Part III provides examples of measures that can be copied for research or clinical purposes.
