Summary: Dynamic Insights!
Comment: These two guys are, perhaps, the true masters of their trade,afterall. In the "deadly" game of risk-assessment, themargin of error can, of course, be a bottom-line matter of life or death. This text goes to great length to "bring home the bacon," and, certainly provides much food for thought. They've mixed the best with the best. Their ultimate product is classic material!
Okay, all of you interested forensic professionals, go ahead and take it from a guy who has been both on the inside looking out and the outside looking in: "This book stacks the deck in your favor."...Certainly, it's truly a MUST BUY!

Summary: An Excellent overview of the topic
Comment: Monahan & Steadman have provided a comprehensive, emperically based book on one of the most constroversial areas in forensic psychology: the process by which the mentally ill are determined to be "dangerous" in the future. As former critics of this area "Risk Assessment", the authors re-evlaute the reliability and validity of risk assessment methods understanding that such assessments are a fact of life and are used dozens of times every day in this country. By far, this book is the best book out there on this subject.
