Too close to home

"Latin America is one of the world's most violent regions, at home and on the streets, with a homicide rate more than twice the world average. Domestic violence is also widespread and closely linked to societal violence: children who experience or witness chronic abuse are more likely to behave violently as adults. In Too Close to Home, international authorities ranging from psychologists and doctors to economists and communication experts offer insights and strategies on this serious public policy concern."--BOOK JACKET.
