Since its original publication in 1982, Getting Free has changed the lives of tens of thousands of women. Written in an accessible style, packed with practical information and answers, special exercises designed to help a woman recognize abuse, and several success stories, Getting Free remains an important resource todayand this updated edition makes it an all the more relevant resource. In this expanded edition, Ginny NiCarthy features important new information from the latest studies and most recent research on the subject. New chapters include an analysis of whether batterers’ treatment really works, which programs help violent men change, and which do not; the results of research on the ways that many men who batter also abuse their children, and specific reactions of children to battering; the cultural and legal issues relevant to immigrant women; and a presentation of how religious beliefs and religious communities affect the real and perceived choices of women facing violence.

Getting Free: A Handbook For Women in Abusive Situations

The first UK edition of a book that has sold well over 100,000 copies in the United States - a straightforward, no nonsense guide for women who find themselves the victim of domestic violence and who need to decide whether to leave or stay. The decision is difficult enough at the best of times. In times of crisis, it becomes even harder to know where to go for help, and how to find the support that is desperately required. "Getting Free" has been extensively revised and adapted for the British reader. It sets out the information women need on legal rights, emergency help from doctors, solicitors, social workers, the police, on benefits and entitlements, on refuges, on injunctions, divorce proceedings and a range of other topics. Ginny NiCarthy explores arguments for and against staying with an abusing partner. She looks at what life will be like, in practical terms, as a single person. And she looks at ways for women to restore their confidence and self-esteem.
