520    What drives someone to commit an act of terrible violence?
       Drawing from her thirty years' experience in working with 
       people who have committed serious offenses, Dr. Gwen 
       Adshead provides fresh and surprising  insights into 
       violence and the mind. Through a collaboration with 
       coauthor Eileen Horne, Dr. Adshead brings her 
       extraordinary career to life in a series of unflinching 
       portraits.  In eleven vivid narratives based on decades of
       providing therapy to people in prisons and secure 
       hospitals, an internationally renowned forensic 
       psychiatrist and psychotherapist demonstrates the 
       remarkable human capacity for radical empathy, change, and
       redemption.  Based on 30 years of experience working in 
       prisons and secure psychiatric hospitals with people 
       convicted of serious violent offenses, internationally 
       renowned forensic psychiatrist Dr. Gwen Adshead presents 
       an account of mental illness and the nature of evil in 
       this compelling series of stories.
