The book balances this professional expertise with personal accounts of children and adults who have been subjected to violence, with a view to understanding the emotional and psychological effects of their experiences.

A broad spectrum of issues are covered, including:* working with children who have been subjected to violence* working with men who were sexually abused in childhood* workplace bullying* victims and mediation* lesbian and gay experiences of crime and violence* war trauma and the aftermath of violent political division* violence in prisons. The contributors analyse the effective delivery of support, assistance and therapy to victims, focusing on practical methods, techniques and skills.

The personal accounts also provide a unique perspective.

This book is essential reading for all professionals working with victims of violence.
