The objective of this new edition in Open Access is to integrate theoretical explanations, empirical findings and practical solutions from many countries and from diverse professional contexts and settings in mental health services. The book aims to provide a state-of-the-art overview of the contexts, causes, treatment which relate to the reduction of coercion and the prevention of violence in mental health settings. A large proportion of the text is concerned with practical and applied guidance to practitioners and others based on a clear understanding of conceptual and theoretical issues. Significantly enriched by the contributions of lived experience editors and co-authors, this edition brings authentic, new perspectives that deepen the relevance and impact. There is an extensive use of case studies drawn from practice and the media to enliven the discussion. The scope of the book is intended to go beyond a reductionist medical/biological orientation on coercion and violence in mental health by integrating this within a broader psychological and social framework. It will include new relevant contributions from nursing, psychology, psychiatry and sociology. The language of the book is clear and understandable to a broad audience whilst offering new knowledge for researchers and other specialists.
