Description
This book unabashedly examines not only domestic violence, but also the larger picture of how politics and processes shape our responses to social problems. It also distinguishes serious research from media which promote entertainment, empowerment and drama. This book is a must read for anyone concerned about our understanding and response to social problems. Berns shows how victims of domestic violence are molded to accord with the perspectives of the dominant media and how, as a result, they are falsely blamed for a crime committed by another person.
