Sumario:Why is it that abused children often go on to abuse their own children? How can this characteristic cycle of parental rejection and violence be explained? Is the explanation the same for all cultures? In The Warmth Dimension, Rohner breaks new ground by offering a theoretical foundation for the problem of child abuse.
