MENTAL DISORDERS, MENTAL ILLNESS AND THE FAMILY COURT
A Reference Guide for Non-Medical Professionals
"A comprehensive resource, in which all of the commonly encountered mental health conditions which may affect adults or children are described in clear, nonmedical, terms and in an intelligently ordered format with advice to the Family Court. Its publication is therefore most welcome and I predict that it will soon become a recognisable presence on the bookshelves of many.”
– The Rt Hon Sir Andrew McFarlane, President of the Family Division
