A cutting-edge text that provides a comprehensive introduction to
mental health problems and criminal behaviour, this book explores
the link between mental health and criminality and considers the
most common and effective therapeutic approaches for working with
offenders and victims of crime. * Part 1 explores the predominant
tensions between forensic and therapeutic agendas; * Part 2
considers how criminal and 'insane' identities and careers may be
considered gendered, classed, culturally and age-dependent
experiences, and be related to power and oppression; * Part 3
examines issues around sex and sexuality in forensic and
therapeutic settings; * Part 4 introduces a range of therapeutic
approaches for working with offenders and victims of crime; * Part
5 covers forensic and therapeutic practices, including programmes
for the prevention of both mental health issues and offending.
Edited by an expert team from the Open University and written by a
broad range of contributors, this book draws on a wealth of
experience in this popular subject area. It will be a key text for
students of forensic psychology, counselling and psychotherapy, and
for health and social care professionals working in therapeutic and
forensic settings.
