Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

''This text would be a valuable addition to a clinician's library.'' --- Contemporary Psychology Research relating to aggression in psychatric patients is widely scattered, appearing in biological, psychological, epidemiological, and criminological literatures, to name just a few fields. Covering theoretical perspectives, general issues, and specific disorders, this volume assimilates the extant data to provide mental health professionals with a comprehensive handbook and reference source.
