Product Description
Review
"...first rate: scholarly, insightful with delightful literary touches...and always with an eye to the struggling practitioner." - Professor Stuart Rees "...sources are extensive, drawing on empirical research, knowledge acquired from professional practice and contributions from literature, poetry and history. This weighty combination of ingredients has produced a richly substantial work." - Community Care "Colin Pritchard has written a book about suicide that should provide psychiatric social workers with a balanced and multi-disciplinary approach to the subject that it is to be hoped will help them in their vital task of reducing Britain's low but much too high suicide rate." - Reviewing Sociology "I enjoyed reading the book, and would recommend it to those with a particular interest in suicide." - Journal of Public Health Medicine "Pritchard has accomplished the difficult feat of producing a book that should appeal to a wide variety of professionals, including psychiatric trainees." - British Journal of Psychiatry "...a very useful starting point for debate, and make it 'recommended reading' on student reading lists." - Journal of Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing (Generation of PM publication page 223) "...a thoroughly professional piece of work which ought to be read by every serving chaplain." - Royal Navy Chaplains Book "...this informed, packed book has much to recommend it." - Journal of Social Work Practice "...refreshingly cross-national in its perspective." - Contemporary Psychology "Pritchards book informed me of what appropriate professional health and social services would look like and so helped me to help young people know what to ask for." - Youth and Policy.
