Well, that's rather lame. Aren't you going to even attempt to explain for yourself why the statistics, analysis, & first-hand experience I've posted is wrong? What happened here is that you got this BS bibliography from one of the numerous "men's right" websites floating around the internet & are clinging to it for dear life. The "author" of the list, Fiebert, is not a doctor at all, or a scientist, or a statistician, or an expert in domestic violence. He is simply a psychologist who has a definite agenda. He's compiled this selectively cherry-picked list & assigned conclusions to support his own preordained beliefs. This "bibliography" has been endlessly printed & reprinted on many "men's rights" sites - which you probably copied it from. Was this from "angryharry.com", "backlash.com", or "menweb.com"?

In every debate, people can find one Source to support what they want to believe. And that single source will be printed & re-printed in a vast echo chamber of web-sites w/a similar agenda. Anti-semitic people will post a real list of Jewish quotes about world domination,posted over & over again on various websites, when it actually originated at Stormfront. Anti-immigrants will have their Source too, about how the immigrants really want to annex the south to Mexico, that actually came from the Minutemen. And so on. You'll always be able to find some off-the wall site to support your biases if you want to. That's why it's important to not believe everything you read on the Internet, but learn what sources are reliable & unbiased. I've posted the actual Dept. of Justice statistics, the actual rates of injury & death, and the actual reported rates of domestic violence - and you have not disputed those facts. Game, set, match.
