Be warned. This is a revealing, disturbing book based on over 80 interviews, many with victims of honour-based crime.
The Centre for Social Cohesion wants to ‘... bring Britain’s ethnic and religious communities closer together...’. This is probably the most comprehensive study of honour-based violence ever conducted in the UK. Its main findings are worth looking at.
