Violence and Mental Illness: Rethinking Risk Factors and Enhancing Public Safety - Psychology and Crime
Eric B. Elbogen
Mass shootings have become a defining issue of our time. Whenever the latest act of newsworthy violence occurs, mental illness is inevitably cited as a preeminent cause by members of the news media and political sphere alike. Violence and Mental Illness exposes how mental illness is vastly overemphasized in popular discussion of mass violence, which in turn makes us all less safe.
