Exploring the intersection of mental health and criminal justice, this book examines whether traditional notions of accountability can be applied to individuals with mental disorders who commit offenses. It delves into legal, ethical, and psychological perspectives, challenging readers to consider how society defines responsibility and justice in the context of mental illness. Through case studies and theoretical analysis, the work invites a deeper understanding of the complexities surrounding mental health in the legal system.
