Reviews

The book offers a summary of the insanity defense, beginning with religious and scientific definitions of mental disease. ... The Matrix is a wholly readable book that presents philosophical and legal arguments in manners and voices that are accessible to a broad audience, and it would be most useful as a companion text in a psychology and law class for advanced undergraduates or in a specialty course in law school. The book is succinct and lucid. (Arthur J. Lurigio, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 61 (16), April, 2016)
