This multidisciplinary team of authors has produced a clear, clinically relevant guide to all aspects of mental health law implementation. This is an introductory book, appropriate for students and trainees embarking on mental health nursing, psychiatry, clinical psychology or mental health social work, but with sufficient detail to carry readers through to the complex issues that will continue to face them during their years of practice. Providing a highly readable account of the subject, it also serves as a well-referenced handbook.
To ensure that this is an authoritative guide throughout, specialist authors have joined the team to contribute chapters on Children and Learning Disabilities, and the whole manuscript has been reviewed by solicitors specialising in mental health law and in criminal law.
