Publisher's Synopsis

Although South Africa is on the brink of a new social order, violence is still widespread, and it is the responsibility of families, communities and state institutions to restore the order needed for reform to take place. This book aims to alert people to the nature, extent and effects of violence, and suggests a number of possible intervention strategies to reduce violence and improve the quality of life.
