Really enjoyed this. As with a similar book I've just read, I was impressed and taken with the level of humanity throughout this book. I particularly appreciated that Dr Adshead did not just look at the more palatable offences, but some incredibly tough ones too. Whilst there were many parts that were deeply familiar to me, there was also a lot of learning in here, and I am excited to apply it to my own line of work.
