Domestic Violence in Asian-American Communities

"Domestic violence in Asian American communities remains a rarely discussed yet pervasive problem. Here, however, contributors present an overview of the culture, including topics such as migration history, demographics, religious heritage, and views on gender and mental health. They discuss existing research on the prevalence of domestic violence and present information on typical patterns of help-seeking behavior and coping styles. Finally, the contributors discuss treatment and policy implications. This book will provide a tool for scholars and researchers in social work and family studies who want to better understand the complexities of serving the growing and diverse Asian American population."--Jacket.
