Renzetti skillfully addresses several central issues: consequences for victims, batterers and the community as a whole; and, what we can learn about domestic violence in general by studying violence in lesbian relationships. The research offers a fresh look at domestic violence by examining the phenomenon of women as perpetrators of intimate violence against women, at the same time making a clear distinction between battering and self defence.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sage Publications","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45457295736983,"sku":"9780803938892","price":7463.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780803938892.webp?v=1769293185","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/violent-betrayal-partner-abuse-in-lesbian-relationships-9780803938892","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
