Yet another book I am reading on my quest for a certification...If I could get a copy of this book to every woman(victim, potential victim) in the world, it would be a good day. If you yourself are never a victim, there is a good chance that you know someone or will know someone who is. This book gives good safety advice, info on resources, and cold hard facts. In the first year that a victim leaves the abuser, the victim's financial status declines by 74% while the abuser's increases by 42%. Would love an updated version of this book, but by no means would I not give this version.
