OXFORD CASEBOOK OF FORENSIC PSYCHIATRY

The Oxford Casebook of Forensic Psychiatry is a newly published companion volume to the second edition of the Oxford Specialist Handbook of Forensic Psychiatry, which expresses 'knowing is only part of deciding', offering an essential practitioner guide to decision-making in clinical forensic and legal psychiatry in any common law authority. Part A provides an introduction to the theory and practice of decision-making; Part B, featuring over ninety-five cases organised into five sections, poses real practice 'case problems' that require the practitioner to address their not only clinical but also legal and ethical aspects, with suggested decision approaches then offered; and Part C describes a wide range of conflicting paradigms, including legal ones, that are routinely used for critiquing decisions made. This robustly discursive approach to a discipline that is both fact-based and value-laden serves to encourage practitioner insight into putting knowledge into practice.
