Psychiatric Times, 28-APR-07 --"I first read the third edition of Clinical Handbook of Psychiatry and the Law during my residency, and it had a strong influence on my decision to enter forensic psychiatry. I have subsequently used the text to teach residents about some of the forensic issues commonly encountered in clinical practice, such as guardianship, capacity for consent to treatment, and civil commitment. This edition retains the superb format, clinical wisdom, and eminent readability of its predecessor, while updating key areas. The authors provide clinicians with information that is both easy to retain and likely to remain relevant. The discussion of legal issues eschews legal jargon in favor of engaging prose, making it highly readable for clinicians. Because of its seamless integration of clinical and legal approaches to common problems, eminent readability, and clinical wisdom, this book makes an invaluable addition to the library of clinicians and attorneys. I consider it mandatory reading for psychiatric residents."

Synopsis
Thoroughly updated for its Fourth Edition, this award-winning handbook gives mental health professionals authoritative guidance on how the law affects their clinical practice.

This edition addresses crucial recent developments including new federal rules protecting patients' privacy, regulations minimizing use of seclusion and restraint, liability risks associated with newer psychiatric medications, malpractice risks in forensic psychiatry, and new structured assessment tools for violence risk, suicidality, and decisional capacity.
