Discussion and Clinical Commentary on Issues in the Assessment and Prediction of Dangerousness; IndexWhen people are victimised by violent crime, the general public assumes that the victim could have been spared if the perpetrator had been identified as potentially dangerous by mental health agents. Yet prediction of dangerousness is an inexact science and depends upon many complex factors. This book provides a thorough and clear description of research findings in order to help clinicians make sound decisions concerning their clients' dangerousness. The book covers a broad spectrum of violent behaviour as well as crucial issues such as biological factors, domestic violence, and the influence of alcohol in violent behaviour. The book is divided into the following sections: Basic Issues in Violence Research, Mental Health Issues and Dangerousness, Family Issues and Dangerousness, Individual Characteristics and Dangerousness. It will serve as an important reference book that not only covers scientific literature but provides views on future directions for research and practice in this valuable field.ViolenceViolencePsychological aspectsViolence.ViolencePsychological aspects.616.85/82Pinard Georges-Franck1961-Pagani Linda1964-UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910450288503321Clinical assessment of dangerousness881424UNINA02934nam 22007575 450 991027235290332120250625211541.09781501727801150172780X9781501726231150172623410.7591/9781501726231(CKB)4340000000258215(DE-B1597)496482(OCoLC)1028954951(DE-B1597)9781501726231(MiAaPQ)EBC5317522(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/89119(Perlego)566060(oapen)doab89119(MiAaPQ)EBC32437369(Au-PeEL)EBL32437369(OCoLC)1028529159(EXLCZ)99434000000025821520190615d2018 fg engur||#||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAllegories of America Narratives, Metaphysics, Politics /Frederick M.

Practicing Political Theory Otherwise --Notes --Bibliography --IndexAllegories of America offers a bold idea of what, in terms of political theory, it means to be American. Beginning with the question What do we want from a theory of politics? Dolan explores the metaphysics of American-ness and stops along the way to reflect on John Winthrop, the Constitution, 1950s behavioralist social science, James Merrill, and William Burroughs.Contestations SeriesAllegoryFictionPolitical aspectsUnited StatesPolitical cultureUnited StatesPolitical scienceUnited StatesHistoryPolitics and literatureUnited StatesPOLITICAL SCIENCE / History & TheorybisacshAllegory.FictionPolitical aspectsPolitical culturePolitical scienceHistory.Politics and literaturePOLITICAL SCIENCE / History & Theory.320.973Dolan Frederick Michael1828843DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910272352903321Allegories of America4397839UNINA
