This volume, based on the Florida Four-City Study, brings together interview material from 737 women, including structured quantitative interviews as well as in-depth qualitative interviews. The authors investigate how many homeless women have experienced violence in their lives, either as children or as adults, and then examine factors associated with experiences of violence, the consequences of violence, and types of interactions of homeless people with the justice system. The volume concludes with pragmatic and compassionate policy recommendations. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardcover is un-jacketed.\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50096393650449,"sku":"CIN0312431473G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50980617748753,"sku":"CIN0312431473A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51327268061457,"sku":"CIN0312431473VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0312431473.jpg?v=1750844164"},{"product_id":"making-literature-matter-book-university-john-schilb-9780312394608","title":"Making Literature Matter","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50300007481617,"sku":"CIN0312394608G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50347540676881,"sku":"CIN0312394608A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0312394608.jpg?v=1751038381"},{"product_id":"making-literature-matter-book-university-john-schilb-9780312653545","title":"Making Literature Matter","description":"THIS TITLE HAS BEN UPDATED TO REFLECT THE 2016 MLA UPDATES  Our editorial team has updated this text based on content from The MLA Handbook, 8th Edition.
