AnnotationThis book is aimed at professionals - such as social workers, residential care and health and nursing staff - whose work involves predicting the behaviour of other people. Risk assessment can usually be carried out by frontline staff dealing with the client in question, rather than by referral to a psychologist or psychiatrist, particularly where there is no history of mental illness. This book should help in developing an ability to use existing knowledge to make competent assessments.
