Recensioner i media

"Though penned primarily for those with more advanced knowledge of forensic issues (including those practicing within the justice system), this work might prove useful for anyone interested in the various intriguing and complicated challenges in the subspecialty of forensic psychiatry."—Steven T. Herron, MD, University of Arizona Health Sciences Center, USA" … a very comprehensive and thorough review of the whole field of forensic psychiatry. It is a book that every practicing forensic psychiatrist would benefit from having. There is no other textbook as comprehensive as this concerned with UK forensic psychiatry: subjects are covered in depth with a vast array of references and articles synthesised. By and large it’s accurate and up-to-date. It’s a real achievement … . Highly Commended."—2014 BMA Medical Book Awards
