Rezensionen

Woman abuse is recognised as a global problem yet the rural as a place for such abuse is relatively invisible. DeKeseredy challenges idyllic myths of rurality and places woman abuse centre stage. This book is insightful, theoretically nuanced and policy relevant. A must read for anyone working in the field of woman abuse.

Sandra Walklate, Eleanor Rathbone Chair of Sociology, Liverpool conjoint Chair of Criminology, Monash

"Woman Abuse in Rural Places offers a timely and much-needed contribution to criminological scholarship. Professor DeKeseredy provides original and innovative insights, drawing together international and intersectional perspectives on woman abuse in rural contexts, and drives forward theory, policy and practice in this field. A must read for students and scholars alike."

Bianca Fileborn, Lecturer in Criminology, University of Melbourne

"Walter DeKeseredy is a world leader in scholarship on violence against rural women and the field is so fortunate to have this wonderful new addition to the literature as part of the Routledge Studies in Rural Criminology series. (It) offers a tremendous contribution to knowledge on violence against women in its collection and analysis of existing research... As always, DeKeseredy's work offers a major contribution to the field and should be required reading for anyone concerned with violence against rural women."
