'Criminal justice-based mental health services have been seriously grappling with internal and external pressures for many years. Various "reform" efforts have come and gone over time. Some have lingered; others have succeeded. For this valuable volume, Jane Winstone has gathered a knowledgeable international group of mental health and criminal justice scholars, researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and service-recipients. In more than a dozen articles, Winstone and her contributors present an experienced array of cogent insights, purposeful proscriptions, and sage advice that will improve day-to-day practice and program outcomes.' Russ Immarigeon, Editor, Pathways for Offender Reentry 'This is a unique and fascinating read and it's hard to imagine it going out of date for some considerable time. It contains a variety of topics drawn from quite different fields of knowledge to review the interface between criminal justice and mental health and propose solutions for the challenges faced. The issues covered include a thorough review of the intervention evidence base, psychological jurisprudence, desistance theory, trauma, and multi-agency collaboration. Winstone has done an excellent job in tying these varied themes together to produce a comprehensive text in this critical policy area.' - Graham Durcan, Associate Director, Criminal Justice Programme, Centre for Mental Health, UK
