Why Does He Do That? by Lundy Bancroft

5.0

I picked this up because I wanted to have a book on the topic I could feel confident giving to library patrons and this one came highly recommended. It is a fantastically useful book and, honestly, the section on cultural attitudes that contribute to some men feeling they have the right to abuse women they’re in relationships with is so spot on that I wish it were required reading in every sex ed curriculum.

One caveat: as I might have guessed from the title, this book does not address female on male partner abuse. (If anyone can recommend a book that does, I would appreciate it.)
