This book explores how we can preserve the integrity of mental health provision in an age when community safety is dominant. Emphasising throughout the mentally disordered in the community, the book examines existing controls and services - compulsory detention, hospitals, supervised discharge, supervision registers, and so on - as well as new developments such as dual diagnosis and questions surrounding treatability.

PHILIP BEAN is Professor of Criminology and Director of the Midlands Centre for Criminology and Criminal Justice, Loughborough University. He is well published in the area of mental disorder and crime and drugs and he was President of the British Society of Criminology 1996-1999.
