People with NDD became more visible in the community with the closure of the long stay institutions having also to cope with the demands of everyday life. NDD can be presented with very complex needs requiring specialist services. This remarkable and readable book covers the existing gap in the knowledge, interventions and supports for people with NDD and forensic aspects. It is also a comprehensive resource for anyone who wants to understand the issues involved for people with NDD and forensic aspects and a useful tool for practitioners. The multidisciplinary approach of the volume is commendable covering the wide range of forensic aspects. The inclusion of some international approaches is of particular interest.'

It describes care pathways through the criminal justice system across the UK and internationally, including the current and ongoing developments of services for this group. With contributions from experts in the field including psychiatrists, researchers and psychologists, this book provides a comprehensive summary of the evidence whilst ensuring the focus is for the everyday clinician working in this area.
