Reviews:

• Wider-ranging than its title suggests, this collection of articles will be helpful in undergraduate courses on gender and violence and for community advocacy. Its strong chapters on sexual harassment in schools and workplaces should be useful to policy committees, as well as to those who teach the subject.
