Editor Mary E. Williams has compiled several essays across three chapters that discuss and debate topics relating to self-injury. Readers will evaluate who is affected by self-injury, why people hurt themselves, and how self-injurers can be helped. Has self-injury increased among soldiers? Is self-injury usually nonsuicidal? Is self-injury a cry for help? Can therapy help self-injurers? These questions and many more are answered for your readers.
