A discussion of issues related to violence. It is part of a series which seeks to provide informative and supportive reading on complex and sometimes painful issues and situations that teenagers encounter and need to be informed about. The approach, positive rather than problem-focused, is designed to equip the reader with the facts and familiarize them with a wide range of points of view and perspectives in difficult issues. This should enable them to come to their own balanced conclusions. It features case studies, facts and figures, and useful contact names and support agency addresses.

A dictionary is a single-volume or multivolume reference work containing brief explanatory entries for terms and topics related to a specific subject or field of inquiry, usually arranged alphabetically (example: Dictionary of Neuropsychology). The entries in a dictionary are usually shorter than those contained in an encyclopedia on the same subject, but the word "dictionary" is often used in the titles of works that should more appropriately be called encyclopedias (example: Dictionary of the Middle Ages in 13 volumes).
