This must-have resource contains coverage of: * Mainstream topics such as civil commitment, termination of parental rights, and federal sentencing evaluations * Psycho-legal topics such as clergy and teacher sexual abuse, elder abuse, and end of life issues * The appropriate application of instruments frequently used in clinical psychology to address psycho-legal issues Ideal for forensic mental health professionals, civil and criminal attorneys, and advanced students, Forensic Psychology: Emerging Topics and Expanding Roles is the definitive comprehensive reference in the field. Alan Goldstein has his finger on the pulse of forensic psychology. He and his A-list contributors showcase a striking array of classic conundrums and budding courtroom controversies.
