      abstract = {This edited collection of data and perspectives takes a  fresh approach to gun violence prevention by addressing the  question, "why are we losing the war on gun violence in  America?" Although successes and failures in the prevention  of gun violence are examined, it is a war we are losing,  due to restrictions on research funding, entrenched  historical perspectives, structural violence, and perhaps  differing priorities or views on what is right or wrong.  Gun violence is a public health crisis. It remains  politicized and has been paralyzed with inaction. In the  chapters, the authors write candidly about the challenges  that have thwarted gun violence prevention, as well as  highlight possible strategies for progress to save lives.  With this compendium, the editors and authors hope to  bridge the growing gap between groups or ideologies, and  create common ground to discuss workable solutions. Why We  Are Losing the War on Gun Violence in the United States is  essential reading for a broad audience including  practitioners, academics, researchers, students,  policy-makers, and other professionals in public health,  behavioral sciences (including social work and psychology),  social sciences, health sciences, public policy, political  science, and law, as well as any readers interested in the  path to decreasing gun violence in America.},
