NEW CAMHL VOLUMES COMING…..IN 2027 & 2028 – STAY TUNED

We have some very exciting news about this book. The four of us as General Editors are returning with 70 new chapters in the coming year or two in what is now becoming a series. By popular demand.


The OG volume was so successful, we realized there is great appetite for and interest in the intersection of law and mental disorder. Across many professions: law and psychiatry is only scratching the surface.

Volumes 2 and 3 are well on their way as we start to comb through manuscript submissions. The authors and content of what’s coming up next are quite literally stunning.
