Losing it : can we stop family violence against women and children?
Hill, Jess2025
Book
What went wrong? Australian governments promised to end violence against women and children in a single generation. Instead, it is escalating: men have been murdering women at an increased rate, coercive control and sexual violence are becoming more complex and severe, and we see a marked rise in youth-on-youth sexual assault. Why? In Losing It, Jess Hill investigates Australia's National Plan to End Violence Against Women and Children to find out what's working and what's not - and what we can do to turn things around. This compassionate, groundbreaking essay lifts the lid on a national crisis.
