Reviews

The impressive expertise of the authors provides a comprehensive and textured view of corporal punishment drawn from an array of disciplines and theoretical perspectives. This book is must reading for everyone engaged in the important social issue of how to reduce corporal punishment in disciplining children. -Edward Zigler, Sterling Professor of Psychology, Emeritus, Yale University There is no shortage of theories to explain the nature, causes, and consequences of corporal punishment. This volume does an excellent job in bringing often diverse perspectives together so that they can be considered side by side. All students of child development, parenting, and related topics will find this book eminently informative. --Professor Jay Belsky, Director of the Institute for the Study of Children, Families and Social Issues, Birkbeck University of London
