Reviews
" Gun Violence and Gun Control is a gripping yet telling anthology of the realities and tragedies too often experienced in the everyday lives of marginalized, racialized communities. Empirically and empathetically driven, it is a stark reminder that the crisis of gun violence does not stop when one is killed. While mainstream discussions of gun violence and gun control seem to swirl around or glaze over identity politics, racism, implicit bias and stigma, among others, this anthology, in different ways, brings these challenging topics to the fore and makes them centre stage for interrogation. Gun Violence and Gun Control is a provocative book - a must read for anyone concerned about keeping conversations about gun violence and gun control alive." -- James Gacek, PhD, Assistant Professor, Department of Justice Studies, University of Regina

Synopsis
This interdisciplinary anthology explores a wide range of intersecting issues contributing to and arising from gun violence. Millions of people are hurt and killed by gun violence globally, and the traumatic realities of these events are navigated by individuals and communities widely. In this context, gun violence fundamentally threatens social functioning in significant ways, and profoundly test the resilience of families. The resulting transformations carry social, political, legal, and economic implications for mothering, family dynamics, and community engagement. This collaborative volume brings together diverse perspectives intended to deconstruct perceptions, realities, risks, and impacts of gun violence, as seen by researchers, educators, community advocates, public health/health care experts, criminologists, social workers, field-based practitioners, and victims/survivors of gun violence. The distinct and broad range of contributions in this volume critically unpacks representations, stress and trauma, resilience, advocacy/activism, policymaking, family functioning, social justice and equity, governmentality and the criminal justice system, public health/health care, and community programs/interventions. Ultimately, the work is a unique contribution to the literature in which there is a lack of wide academic consideration of gun violence and a demonstrably unsatisfactory political response stretching back decades., This interdisciplinary anthology explores a wide range of intersecting issues contributing to and arising from gun violence.
