Comprehensive and erudite, this book is a practical guide to the psychiatry of offenders,victims, and survivors of crime. This landmark publication has been completely updated but retains all the features that made the first edition such a well-established text. It integrates the clinical, legal,and ethical aspects of forensic psychiatry with contributions from internationally regarded experts from a range of clinical professions.
Almost all chapters have been completely rewritten. New chapters for this second edition address the genetics of antisocial behaviour, disorders of brain structure and function that relate to crime, offenders with intellectual disabilities, and deviant staff. Althoughthe book focuses on jurisdictions in the UK, a substantial comparative chapter written by an international group from all five continents explores the different philosophies, legal principles, and style of services elsewhere.
The book is an essentialreference for specialists and postgraduate trainees in forensic psychiatry but also for general psychiatrists, and clinical and forensic psychologists. It is also an invaluable resource for other forensic mental health professionals, including nurses, social workers, occupational therapists, probation service staff, police; attorneys, criminologists, and sociologists.
