| Abstract

|
In Understanding Treatment Without Consent, key contributors examine the work of the UK Mental Health Act Commission. Based on a research project funded by the Department of Health, the book also offers a broader exploration of mental health provision in both historical and contemporary contexts, discussing whether mental health reforms have learned the lessons of history.
