"In 1988, Walter S. DeKeseredy announced Male Peer Support (MPS) Theory, which popularized
the notion that certain all-male peer groups encourage, justify, and support the abuse
of women. In 1993, DeKeseredy and Martin D. Schwartz modified and expanded MPS Theory.
Today, after twenty-five years of research, numerous studies from a diverse range
of fields and practitioners support the original claim, providing a powerful explanation
for the mechanism that underlies much of North America's violence against women. This
book provides a history of the theory, traces its development and uses over a quarter
century, and offers an update on Internet-generated abuse." -- Publisher website
