1. Violence, power, and justice : A feminist contribution to Christian sexual ethics
Sammanfattning : This study discusses how male battering of women can be understood through due attention to contemporary psychological and sociological interpretations and concludes that a critical feminist perspective offers the most adequate explanation of the problem.
