There is a growing demand for risk assessments within the fields of mental health and criminal justice. Conroy and Murrie (both affiliated with Sam Houston State U.), who have private forensic-clinical practices, present a guide to educate consumers of risk assessments in the scientific principles, latest research findings and developments in the field. Emphasizing that risk assessment (RA) must balance public safety and personal liberties, real-world cases rarely fit perfectly into empirical models, and RA works only when used with appropriate data, they describe the current RA toolbox. The book appends RA instruments for use with adults and juveniles at risk for committing violence, and sample RA reports. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
