Lynda Lytle Holmstrom, "The Victim of Rape: Institutional Reactions"
English | ISBN: 1138539376 | 2017 | 334 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
This unprecedented in-depth account of how our major institutions respond to the crime of rape is the first empirical study of rape victims in the United States as they come into contact with those who staff our police stations, hospitals, and courthouses. As this engrossing study makes clear, rape does not end with the assailant's departure; the profound suffering of the victim can be diminished or heightened by the response of these institutions.
