Ethical Practice in Forensic Psychology - A Guide for Mental Health Professionals (Paperback, 2nd Revised edition)

Forensic psychologists have consistently relied upon Ethical Practice in Forensic Psychology: A Guide for Mental Health Professionals for expert advice on negotiating ethical dilemmas in forensic contexts, including civil, criminal, and family law cases.
