' "Dr. Bongar proposes a working model for the assessment, management, and treatment of suicidal patients in both inpatient and outpatient contexts. His suggestions for optimal clinical practice provide additional guidance on sophisticated risk management strategies for suicide prevention and postvention." With the inclusion of new material on cross-cultural assessment and management issues, the newest appellate case law, and several risk estimators and assessment scales, The Suicidal Patient arms psychologists with the knowledge they need to care for suicidal patients and ultimately better serve all their patients. This volume will again be chosen by thousands of psychologists and mental health professionals as a reliable, practical, and sensitive resource on suicidal patients.' -From the Publisher
