Product Description
In 1995 Kentucky Governor Brereton Jones granted parole to ten women who had been convicted of killing, conspiring to kill or of assaulting the men who had abused them for years. The media began referring to them as the Sisters in Pain, a name they embraced. These are their stories.

Interviewed by L. Elisabeth Beattie and Mary Angela Shaughnessy, seven of the women reveal the breath-taking, gut-wrenching details of their ordeals. Many of them suffered abuse almost beyond human comprehension, let alone human endurance. The result is a painfully unforgettable book.

Beattie and Shaughnessy place these stories within the historical and cultural context of domestic violence in America. They explore the legal ramifications of fighting back in language clear to the layperson. And they provide background information about the Sisters in Pain, revealing the ways these women have picked up the pieces of their shattered lives and learned to face their pasts.

Anyone who has ever asked, “Why don’t they just leave?” when faced with such tales will come to understand the interconnected strands of physical, sexual, and psychological abuse that makes simply living through another day a triumph. ... Read more

Product Description
Emotions can master our minds, take over our lives, and destroy our future.
It is up to you to deal with your emotions while learning how to command
and master the emotions. The emotions are human makeup that stems from
natural inborn sources, while as the emotions grow (birth – child – adult) the
emotions learn, believe, misconceive, disbelieve, teach, lie, deceive, etc. The
emotions are powerful, since emotions stem from the hearts learning as well,
which the heart is deceptive. This is where fact-finding comes into play,
since if you do not have facts you will lack confidence, self-esteem, selfassurance,
self-trust, self-respect, and all those other words that make a
human being whole. This brings us to problems. The problems include
acting on impulses, becoming angry, experience sadness, emptiness, and the
like. Most times when you hear of alcoholism, drug additions, nicotine
additions, criminal minds, psychological problems, and the like you are
hearing about people who have not mastered their mind to command their
emotions.
Now we can move into impulsive response to see how the emotions work. ... Read more

Product Description

Why have most interventions failed to decrease domestic violence in this country? Larry Tifft provides reasons—and suggests possible solutions—in this revealing study of the cultural, social structural, and interpersonal dynamics that support a man’s choice to batter his intimate partner.Tifft addresses the cultural underpinnings of violence against women, including the gender hierarchy evident in the basic structure of our society and in our institutions. Through an analysis of the stages in the battering process, he explores the context, meanings, and decision-making processes that lead men to batter women and encourage women to choose various coping, resistance, and survival strategies. What emerges from Tifft’s study are not only patterns of physical violence, but also patterns of sexual, psychological, and spiritual violence that the batterer uses to control his partner’s thoughts, to annihilate her voice, and to deconstruct her sense of self and reality.Intrapersonal and interpersonal interventions have failed to decrease the prevalence of battering in our society. Primary prevention strategies designed to change the social structural arrangements that foster violence are likely to be much more effective. Tifft explains why and how these community-coordinated interventions, which challenge our most basic assumptions, are our best hope for reducing the incidence of battering.
