This volume provides a masterful combination of theory, research, practice, and policy to focus on how homicides resulting from serious mental disorder may be prevented. A must read for all students of mental disorder and its relationship to violence. Prof Graeme Newman, University at Albany - State University of New York, USA Discussing a profoundly serious topic which has many misconceptions surrounding it, this book is excellent reading for anybody who deals with criminal justice and mental health. I recommend it strongly.
