Reviews

This Handbook clearly and creatively lays out effective techniques for rapidly responding to a broad array of real-world crises. Empirically solid and clinically astute, this work is without peer as a guide to providing urgent care. When time is of the essence, every practitioner will want to have Kleespies' extraordinary book within arm's reach. --<em>John Monahan, PhD, Shannon Distinguished Professor of Law, Psychology, and Psychiatry, University of Virginia</em> The assessment, prediction, and management of patients' violence toward themselves and toward others are the most challenging and demanding clinical tasks. Dr. Kleespies deserves KUDOS for bringing together experts to address these issues in a life-span perspective from children to the elderly. This Handbook should be on the desk of every clinician. It is an incredible collection of tools and resources. --<em>Donald Meichenbaum, PhD, Research Director of The Melissa Institute for Violence Prevention and Treatment, Miami, FL</em> Recent events involving interpersonal violence, mass shootings, school and workplace shootings, suicide, 'suicide by cop, ' and other behavioral emergencies have brought a sense of urgency to the search for a better understanding of how to prevent these events. The common explanation that 'he (or she) just snapped' is at best an incomplete explanation and, at worst, a justification for failing to apply recent, pertinent theory and research into preventing behavioral emergencies... Kleespies' Handbook is organized around a central goal of providing young practitioners and their mentors with both a knowledge and a skill base for addressing common behavioral emergencies. --<em>David J. Drummond, PhD, Affiliated Associate Professor of Psychiatry, Oregon Health & Sciences University</em>

Drummond, PhD, Affiliated Associate Professor of Psychiatry, Oregon Health & Sciences University While its 573 pages may be initially intimidating, this results from one of the book's greatest assets--its copious references. There are 35 chapters divided into eight sections that cover emergencies varying from managing suicidal risk to evaluation of victims of violence to the duty to protect. The information provided is thorough, specific, and clearly documented...the breadth and depth provided in each section will be valuable to trainees and seasoned practitioners alike. --PsycCRITIQUES
