Product Description
Review
...I would highly recommend this book for its scope and clarity. (British Journal of Psychology )
This book stands alone at the forefront of identifynig and understanding this disturbing phenomenon. The vast experience of the authors adds a rich clinical component to to the empirical data and serves to make the information more approachable and useful for readers. This is a worthy addition to a practitioner's library, and the comfortable writing style allows for quick referral to specific issues. The book will undoubtedly be viewed as a vital reference for both forensic and general clinicians involved in the assessment and potential treatment of individuals with stalking behavior. (Doddy's Notes, )

A Tour De Force on the Subject of Stalking
19 Jun 2007
Format:Hardcover
As one of the 17 co-authors of this text, it is appropriate for me to focus on how the text has been received by psychiatric peers.
This textbook has been highly praised by the psychiatric community. Among others, two comments that have been made about the text include:
"This is an exemplary review of what is known about stalking by a superb coterie of psychiatric scholars and clinicians." -- J. Reid Meloy, PhD, ABPP, Chairman, Forensis, Inc., Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, University of California, San Diego School of Medicine
and
"This comprehensive monograph covers a frightening topic from empirical research and classification to practical victim protective strategies, from risk assessment to courtroom tactics. Drawing on recognized authorities, this book will clearly become he most useful current treatise in the field." -- Thomas G. Gutheil, MD, Professor of Psychiatry and Co-Founder, Program in Psychiatry and the Law, BIDMC, Harvard Medical School
