Summary: This book is a practical guide for anyone who works in the field of intervention with men who have engaged in violence or sexual abuse towards partners and family members. It builds on the invitational model introduced by Alan Jenkins in the book "Invitations to Responsibility" (Dulwich, 1990). The book argues that intervention practices must move beyond attempts to coerce, confront or educate a seemingly unwilling or unmotivated man. Instead it offers 'respectful intervention practices', necessitating a parallel journey by the therapist. (from the back cover)
