TY - JOUR PY - 2006// TI - Firearm use in intimate partner violence: a brief overview JO - Evaluation review A1 - Sorenson, Susan B. SP - 229 EP - 236 VL - 30 IS - 3 N2 - Readers of this volume are likely to have specific interests in domestic violence or in firearms policy. It is not assumed, however, that the typical reader will know about the interface of the two fields. Thus, the volume begins with a synopsis of the epidemiology of weapon use in intimate partner violence. The purpose of this article is to help readers better understand the nature of the problem, obtain knowledge that will provide a context for the policy, and under-stand practice implications of the articles that follow.
