Psychology of Female Violence

Violence in general, and female violence in particular, is a hot topic (in the media and society in general), with rising numbers of women committing violent crimes

Gender remains a perennially good topic in psychology (see sales of Gender Issues in Clinical Psychology above)

This book takes a uniquely comprehensive clinical perspective on women's clinical behaviour, looking at a broader range of criminal acts than the competition and illustrates with many clinical examples

It's the only handbook for professionals working in a range of clinical and criminal justice professions that gives essential information on how to understand such behaviour and, practical suggestions for how to work with violent women
