Forced hospitalization of people with mental disorders has long been a critical issue in the mental health services. Coercion and AggressiveCommunity Treatmentis the first sustained description and analysis of what happens when `aggressive' treatment becomes `coerced' treatment. Mental health professionals poignantly discuss the tension they feel between wanting to do everything to treat desperately ill people and the need to respect the rights of these same people who want to make their own decisions, even if this means forgoing treatment. | Coercion and Aggressive Community Treatment by Deborah L.
