Review
"Two of the most careful and well-respected scholars in the field have collaborated on an impressive volume that covers a broad swath of everything one could want to know about coercion, from evolution to intervention to public health. What might seem like a niche topic to the uninformed becomes one of the most important societal concerns in these pages. This volume is both a primer for neophytes and a must-read for seasoned scholars. Kudos." --Kenneth A. Dodge, PhD, William McDougall Professor of Public Policy, Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience, and Director, Center for Child and Family Policy, Duke University"Coercion theory of interpersonal relationships has proven to be enormously important in generating research and in conveying the interplay of theory and research and how these improve our understanding of social phenomena in everyday life. The content and findings in The Oxford Handbook of Coercive Relationship Dynamics are fascinating. The book, as a gestalt, meticulously illustrates how 'good science' works and how theory, methods, and findings can translate to everyday life. We are in a world where coercive processes seem more relevant, or at least more conspicuous, than ever before. This book conveys how sound science can advance our understanding as well as generate methods to produce change. The book is a remarkable contribution to both science and society." --Alan E. Kazdin, PhD, ABPP, Sterling Professor of Psychology and Professor of Psychology and Professor of Child Psychiatry, Department of Psychology, Yale University"This book does a good job of covering a wide range of topics related to coercion in children through adults. It presents both theoretical models and intervention strategies." -Doody's Health Science
