The audiobook will be the second edition of Single in America by J.L. Barkas, considered a classic by a sociologist about the various types of singles - by choice, by divorce, by widowhood, living together (so not really "single" but considered single in the statistics). With the number of singles over 18 now at 102 million - this audiobook is much-needed and timeless.

This comprehensive and powerful book, with a new introduction as well as an updated bibliography and resource section, is based on scores of original interviews which took the author throughout the U.S. and Europe for research including meeting with the head of Scotland Yard. Victims is a searching book at who are the crime victims, how does the criminal justice system and society treat them, and what needs to be done.
