deal with individuals with behaviour they do not like or find
threatening. This much- needed new text provides insights and
access to a range of therapeutic interventions. The book is divided

addresses legal and ethical issues, and raises questions about the
language we use to describe behaviour we find difficult to

descriptions of seven different approaches and interventions. The
third section of the book discusses the problematic nature of
evidence for choosing particular interventions and therapies.
