Forensic Mental Health Professionals have entered the fray of
child custody litigation in ways that could not have been predicted
even a decade ago. Traditionally engaged as neutral court appointed
evaluators or mediators, or as treatment providers for children,
parents or families, FMHPs are assuming a range of consulting
functions. Services span a wide range, including providing expert
testimony on specific content areas; reviewing and critiquing
colleague 's work product; providing behind the scenes consultation
to attorneys, and even help attorneys manage difficult cases and
clients. These more recent services raise questions about sound
professional practice. This volume tackles these thorny issues head
on, and discusses questions how consultants can work creatively and
ethically to make a positive contribution in the challenging world
of family law.

In this important new work, Margaret Meriwether and Judith Tucker
synthesize and make accessible the results of the extensive
research on women and gender done over the last twenty years. Using
new theoretical approaches and methodologies as well as
nontraditional sources, scholars studying women and gender issues
in Middle Eastern societies have made great progress in shedding
light on these complex subjects. "A Social History of Women and
Gender in the Modern Middle East" provides an overview of this
scholarship on women and gender in the nineteenth- and
twentieth-century Middle East.The book is organized along thematic
lines that reflect major focuses of research in this area--gender
and work, gender and the state, gender and law, gender and
religion, and feminist movements--and each chapter is written by a
scholar who has done original research on the topic. Although
structured around the individual author's own work, the chapters
also include overviews and assessments of other research,
highlights of ongoing debates and key issues, and comparisons
across regions of the Middle East. An insightful introduction
centers the various chapters around key theoretical,
methodological, and historical issues and makes connections with
other areas of social historical research on the Middle East and
with research on gender and women's history in other parts of the
world.Although there are many studies available on women and
gender, "A Social History of Women and Gender in the Modern Middle
East" provides a breadth of coverage and assessment of the field
that is not found elsewhere.
