Contemporary Debates

Examine the drivers and impact of domestic violence on partners, spouses, families and communities, as well as programs and reforms to support victims of domestic violence.

Domestic violence has a devastating impact on partners, spouses, families and communities. This resource explores the toll of domestic violence and also the programs and reforms that have been crafted to intervene in abuse situations and provide assistance to victims. 

This book helps readers understand the extent to which domestic violence permeates American society, the socioeconomic and psychological drivers of that violence, and efforts to reform legal and law enforcement systems to make their policies and practices more sensitive to those who have been abused and victimized, using quantifiable data as the foundation for examining every issue. It asks and answers questions related to root causes of domestic violence, risk factors, legal options for those who have been abused, and domestic violence prevention programs.

Systems Approach to Early Childhood Development: Bridging Theory, Policy and Practice&nbsp;offers a comprehensive and compelling, evidence-based roadmap for strengthening development in early childhood years. Drawing on neuroscience, developmental psychology, developmental diversity and laws for protecting children, the book presents the interaction and influence of each other within a broader ecosystem. The book is a coming together of four decades of academic, research, policy and field experience of the author, and it bridges the gap between knowledge and action. It is spread across eight chapters covering early development, developmentally appropriate activities, care practices, parenting, disability, child protection, and more.This book tackles the most pressing questions in Early Childhood Development today: What truly shapes a child’s development in the early years—and how can these diverse influences be meaningfully integrated by those working with and for young children? How do we ensure no child is left behind—especially those with disabilities or facing adversity? How do we strength systems for each child?With a strong emphasis on how nurturing care and emotional safety shape brain development and social outcomes, the book illustrates why investing in early years is not only a moral imperative—but a national strategy.Grounded in India’s ECCE landscape drawing from NEP 2020, it aligns with global frameworks like UNCRPD and UNCRC, this book is an essential resource for educators, researchers, students, policymakers, practitioners, parents and anyone committed to building inclusive, resilient and integrated approach for all children.

Child Sexual Abuse

“Price not only rises above the hurt and hate, she uses her hard-won insights to shine a light for others.” —Jeannette Walls, #1 New York Times bestselling author For readers of Educated, The Glass Castle, and Know My Name comes a powerful new memoir that is a remarkable testament of survival and resilience. At once harrowing and exquisite, haunting and inspiring, Kate Price’s story will leave readers with a profound assurance in the power to heal. Kate Price grew up in a small mill town in central Pennsylvania with her sister and parents in northern Appalachia. At the insistence of her mother, and through her academic accomplishments, Price escaped the unbroken cycles of poverty, violence, addiction, mental illness, and abuse that had plagued her family for generations. She started a new life in Cambridge, Massachusetts, in pursuit of her master’s and PhD. But despite having left this dark world behind, it still kept a firm grip on her. Overcome with unexplainable grief and sadness and having sustained a series of hazy flashbacks accompanied by a “chilling of her blood and uncomfortable feeling in her bones,” Price sought out Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, a trauma specialist to help heal her constant emotional pain through EMDR therapy. He went on to write the bestselling book, The Body Keeps the Score, which features Price's story, as the two worked together to find out about her past. When Price, whose brain had been protecting her by shutting out these horrific memories, felt safe enough, she along with van der Kolk as her guide, discovered what that darkness that lay within her was. Her father had abused and trafficked her as a child. Price grappled with what had been revealed. Did this really happen to her? How could a parent do this to a child? A dedicated researcher and academic, she knew she needed confirmation, proof that what she had remembered had happened. And so began a 10-year quest alongside a journalist, to prove what Price knew to be her truth. With many trips back to the hometown she thought she had left forever, the two eventually found the hard-earned evidence Price had been searching for. In this exquisitely rendered, transformative memoir, Price describes how she broke free of that which had defined her childhood and went on to create a purpose-driven life and family, on her own terms. Eventually returning to the same Appalachian community to use her education and advocacy to help ensure children are given the attention, protection, and services that she never received. From victim to advocate, from fearful child to empowered adult, and from despair to triumph, This Happened to Me is a story of astonishing resilience and breathtaking determination.

I am in awe' AMY LIPTROT 'Beautiful, deep, transfixing . . . it will burn a home in your heart' LEMN SISSAY 'Essential reading, life-changing ... Beautiful, earth-shattering and unforgettable' SAMANTHA MORTON 'Mesmerising, heart-breaking. I'll never forget it' ANNIE MAC 'Should be required reading' CLAIRE FULLER The government told a story about me before I was born. Jenni Fagan was property of the state before birth. She drew her first breath in care and by the age of seven, she had lived in fourteen different homes and had her name changed multiple times. Twenty years after her first attempt to write this powerful memoir, Jenni is finally ready to share her account. Ootlin is a journey through the broken UK care system - it is one of displacement and exclusion, but also of the power of storytelling. It is about the very human act of making meaning from adversity.

In the early 1970s 'baby battering' accounted for an estimated 700 child deaths a year in Britain. First published in 1974, the special virtue of this book was that, apart from being the first fully-researched book on the subject, the author was able to look at baby battering as an outsider, seeing the picture as a whole.

'Perhaps the most brilliant English novelist of his generation' - Alan Hollinghurst At his mother's family house in the south of France, Patrick Melrose has the run of a magical garden. Bravely imaginative and self-sufficient, five-year-old Patrick encounters the volatile lives of adults with care. His father, David, rules with considered cruelty, and Eleanor, his mother, has retreated into drink. They are expecting guests for dinner. But this afternoon is unlike the chain of summer days before, and the shocking events that precede the guests' arrival tear Patrick's world in two. Never Mind was originally published, along with Bad News and Some Hope, as part of a three book omnibus, also called Some Hope. 'At once epic and intimate, appalling and comic, the novels are masterpieces, each and every one' - Maggie O'Farrell, author of The Marriage Portrait Adapted for TV for Sky Atlantic and starring Benedict Cumberbatch as aristocratic addict, Patrick. Part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the best of modern literature.

The first of The Patrick Melrose Novels, Edward St Aubyn's critically acclaimed series.

Everyone will want to read this amazing story' - Andrew O'Hagan, author of Caledonian Road Sandra Brown was eight when her friend and neighbour, twelve-year-old Moira Anderson, disappeared from the small town of Coatbridge near Glasgow in 1957. Moira has not been seen since. Twenty-seven years later, at a family funeral, Sandra's estranged father confessed to her that he had been involved in the girl's disappearance. Appalled by his curious half confession, Sandra began to delve into the case and in so doing discovered that her father was a child molester whose activities were known not just to everyone in Coatbridge, but also to the police. The horrifying jigsaw she pieced together, along with the admission her father had made, ultimately convinced Sandra that he had been responsible for Moira's death nearly fifty years ago. Where There Is Evil is the remarkable story of Sandra's quest to unravel the mystery and see justice done. 'Inspirational . . .

With many trips back to the hometown she thought she had left forever, the two eventually found the hard-earned proof Price had been searching for.
