She has also published and presented at conferences in the field of mental health and human rights law.Jill leads and represents the Law subject group at Edinburgh Napier University in research and is Director of the Centre for Mental Health and Incapacity Law Rights and Policy.Hilary Patrick is a former Honorary Fellow in the School of Law at Edinburgh University, she served on the Millan and McManus committees, advising on the reform of Scottish mental health law.

When I reviewed the 1st edition of Hilary Patrick’s “Mental Health, Incapacity and the Law in Scotland” I predicted that, within much of its extended area of coverage, “This book will be the authoritative starting-point for lawyers and non-lawyers alike for some years to come”. I was right. This 2nd edition, a decade later, is to be welcomed for several principal reasons...A full and authoritative exposition of mental health law...multi-dimensional coverage of an impressively wide range of topics.
