Abstract
This concluding chapter highlights several key findings from the preceding chapters and discuss a few particularly important topics for the next generation of research studies on violence and prevention. The chapter refers to comments made elsewhere in the book about the need for broader, more inclusive definitions of violence; for more knowledge of social, structural and environmental influences; and for advances in prevention to bring about lasting changes in real world settings.
