An invaluable resource for all healthcare professionals who may come into contact with clients with complex needs. I will certainly keep it on my bookshelf for reference. <br> Healthcare Counselling and Psychotherapy Journal (hcpj) <br> this book gloriously achieves its goal ... a valuable addition to our understanding of the debates, research, theory and best practice around dual diagnosis. <br> Point <br> This book is an especially useful primer and resource for all nursing and healthcare specialties, but is an essential text for psychiatric nursing students and practitioners. <br> Few books are available on this topic and none have represented the entire clinical issue as well. <br> Doody's Rating <br> This book gloriously achieves its goal...a valuable addition to our understanding of the debates, research, theory and best practice around dual diagnosis. <br> Psychminded.co.uk
