Self-made Madness:

Rethinking Illness and Criminal Responsibility
Front Cover
0 Reviews
Ashgate Publishing, Ltd., 2003 - Law - 252 pages
This multi-disciplinary book lies in the general areas of forensic psychiatry, sociology, jurisprudence, criminal law and criminology. It questions traditional assumptions about illness and particularly mental disorder and deals with the controversial notion that they are not at least in part the fault of the 'sufferer'. It examines how the law can take into account such 'culpable' notions of mental disorder in determining criminal responsibility. This culpability for the defence-causing condition (or 'responsibility for level of criminal responsibility') is called 'meta-responsibility'.
