The Battering Syndrome

The Battering Syndrome:
Why Men Beat Women and The Professionals
Guide to Intervention

The national epidemic of domestic violence is affecting every aspect of society including the workplace. What do you do if you suspect someone is being abused? In this book, domestic violence expert Michael Groetsch presents a potentially life-saving Batterer's Continuum^SM that enables readers to help victims assess the dangerousness of their batterer. Next, the book presents a realistic course of action. This is an invaluable resource.

"Mr. Groetsch is, without doubt, one of our nation's foremost authorities on the topic of spousal abuse. I highly recommend his work to any victim or professional who seeks insights, answers and solutions to one of the most tragic social problems facing our nation today." - Dr. Halina Margan, DSW, Tulane University

"As a professional educator and administrator for the last twenty years, I find The Battering Syndrome^SM to be an invaluable guide in dealing with many adolescent relationships. I highly recommend this book to all educators, particularly those in secondary school settings."
- Joette A. Quarrella, M.Ed., Jefferson Parish Public School System
