Stahl’s Illustrated Violence: A Comprehensive Guide to Managing Aggressive Behaviors in Psychiatric Patients

Written by renowned authors Stephen M. Stahl and Debbi Ann Morrissette, Stahl’s Illustrated Violence is a concise and highly illustrated guide that delves into the underlying neurobiology and genetic predisposition of aggressive behaviors in patients with psychiatric disorders.
