Rogers has done it again. Clinical Assessment of Malingering and Deception, Third Edition, will serve as the authoritative work on response style for years to come. The assessment of feigning is the cornerstone of any forensic mental health evaluation. This book is a 'must' for all forensic mental health professionals, and doubtless will be frequently consulted for the most up-to-date information on research and practice.--Alan M. Goldstein, PhD, ABPP, ABFP, Professor Emeritus, John Jay College of Criminal Justice, City University of New York
Coverage encompasses the fabrication of symptoms by civil litigants, feigned psychosis on the part of criminal defendants, the minimizing of negative personality characteristics by law enforcement applicants, and many other topics. The volume emphasizes a scientific approach to the evaluation of malingering and deception. This is an essential resource for psychologists and other practitioners who work in forensic settings. General clinicians, particularly those involved in interviewing and assessment, also will find it a very useful reference.--Glenn J. Larrabee, PhD, ABPP-CN, independent practice, Sarasota, Florida
Malingering and deception represent complicated but critical issues for clinical assessors. Edited by one of the leading scholars in the clinical assessment of deception, this volume provides comprehensive coverage of issues and instruments. It should be consulted regularly for guidance in this very difficult but important area of personality assessment.--Christopher J. Hopwood, PhD, Department of Psychology, Michigan State University

This edited book, which consists of 24 chapters by experts in the field, is in its third edition. It demonstrates the remarkable expansion in the field of malingering and other forms of deception since its first edition in 1988. Major advances have taken place in the development of detection strategies, which include the use of multiple measures rather than relying on a single test, and their solid conceptual foundation and empirical validation... A huge strength of the book is the exceptional breadth of relevant subject matter, the appropriate detail and comprehensiveness of each chapter and their consistently good quality. - Gisli Gudjonsson, Institute of Psychiatry, British Journal of Psychiatry, 195, 2009

The best first step for all clinicians is to read this comprehensive, authoritative, and informative book. They can then make an informed decision about whether they want to change their practice and how to do it.-British Journal of Psychiatry
