"A really useful summary of the relevant information and legal guidance coupled with practical tips, cautionary notes and points to remember when assessing mental capacity. It provides illustrative examples of common decisions in clinical practice and discusses complex situations such as high risk decisions, the ‘frontal lobe paradox’, and refusals to engage with the assessment of mental capacity. This book will be a helpful resource for practitioners both for those new to assessments of mental capacity and for those with more experience." – Dr Camilla Herbert, Consultant Clinical Neuropsychologist
