Recenzje

Disturbing as the subject is, Paul Churchill has given us a fascinating, trenchant, and ultimately hopeful analysis of a seemingly intractable problem. Deploying tools from several disciplines, he unpacks the causes and consequences of these crimes for their victims and their communities. As he explains, so-called honor killings are symptomatic of greater challenges that this book will help us face.
