In order to promote "real" equality for women based on their formal rights to personhood, citizenship, freedom, and safety, Coercive Control reframes abuse as a liberty offense as opposed to an assault accusation. One-quarter of men and one-third of women have been physically abused by a romantic partner. Legal experts, police officers, social workers, therapists, concerned friends and family, and members of the judicial and religious communities will find value in Interpersonal Aggression: Complexities of Domestic and Intimate Partner Abuse. The topic of domestic violence is covered, including the victim's perspective, its history, the legal system and law enforcement, domestic violence in the workplace, religion, the intersection of the LGBTQ+ community and intimate partner abuse, the military, how the victims' cultural backgrounds affect their decisions, batterers, and intervention programs and counseling.
