Godefroy’s text is a timely introduction to mental health law aimed particularly at the mental health social workerIt will most likely prove invaluable to students choosing to specialise in mental health. He provides very detailed and clear expectations of the processes involved in formal mental health assessments, what needs to take place in practice and how this happens. This will prove very illuminating and insightful for the non-AMHP and practitioner considering embarking on AMHP qualification. -- Matthew Gough
