Have you heard? The second book in Durvile Publications’ True Case Series will be available this week!
SHRUNK: Crime and Disorders of the Mind is a collection of powerful chapters by eminent Canadian and international forensic psychologists and psychiatrists who write about the mental health issues they face in practice and what they are doing about it.
Following the immense success of Tough Crimes: True Cases by Top Canadian Criminal Lawyers, SHRUNK is scheduled for release on Thursday, May 5, 2016.
About the Book
Unlike any other book within the genre of True Crime, SHRUNK is the first book that delves deeply into the disturbed human psyche to help build a solution to the problem of understanding mental illness within the criminal justice system.
As Earl J. Levy QC says,
The workings of the criminally disordered mind has always been a fascinating subject for experts and lay persons alike. How do trials play out for individuals with mental health issues? … Is it worthwhile to attempt to rehabilitate such persons?”
Get more details, including a sneak peek of some of the haunting stories this book features.
