520 _aThe focus of this book is on domestic violence, violence in the community, and war and terrorism as they have affected the lives of children from birth to 17 years. Its contributors provide much recent knowledge about the prevalence and consequences of the exposure of children to violence in different forms. This research-based knowledge about treatment services and interventions to counter the negative mental health consequences of such violence exposure for children is used to review existing and future public policies. Insights are offered to those who work in the field of violence prevention and interventions for children and families and recommendations made for future research in support of best practice.
