- catalog abstract ""While many books detail distinguishing characteristics of the abusive relationship and the psychological profiles of the women and men involved, few accounts reveal how some women eventually gather the courage to leave." "In a chronicle by turns harrowing and inspiring, Ann Goetting tells how sixteen women finally got away for good. Getting Out recounts not only the stories of their abuse but also the women's life histories leading up to the battering - and the resources they drew upon to escape." "Getting Out is a book that some women may read to discover solutions to problems within their own lives and those of people they know. It is also a work that social workers and psychologists who deal with battered women will find singularly informative and one that will find an audience of readers seeking to understand the lives of women involved with abusive men."--Jacket.".
