Books by Herschel Prins

Revised edition of the author's Offenders, deviants, or patients?, 2010.

Fire-raising is an increasing problem. The motives of fire-raisers are complex and their behaviour hard to change. Prins examines the size of the problem, its investigation and motivation, and attempts to lead the way to more effective management.

This book considers the issue of public protection within a broad context of risk in society when tackling the controversial issue of the mentally ill. Such cases examined where the management of patients has failed and must be improved.
