“Ann Jones’s excellent and lucidly written book should be read by judges, doctors, police officers, journalists and social workers. . . . Next Time, She’ll Be Dead brings to light the secret history of the undeclared war on women in America.” -Kim Wozencraft, New York Newsday
“[Ann Jones] is angry and constructive at the same time. She conveys an intelligent analysis of violence and victimhood. And she offers a well-conceived . . . blueprint for social and institutional change.” -Rickie Solinger, The New York Times Book Review
“A convincing and meticulously researched case that America’s judicial, law enforcement and legal response to the problem [of battering] makes it impossible for women to live free from bodily harm.” -Marissa E. Ghez, San Francisco Chronicle
