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.
