Clinical Prediction of Violent Behavior (The Master Work Series) 

As therapists are increasingly held legally responsible for failing to predict their client”s violent behaviour, the pressure to know and forecast behaviour – never the chosen domain of clinicians – has risen. Worries about potential law suits invade the therapeutic setting. The volume enables therapists to master the proven signs of potentially harmful acts, so that they can get back to the work they were trained for: helping people.
