Note: The authors have worked to ensure that all information in this book is accurate at the time of publication and consistent with general psychiatric and medical standards, and that information concerning drug dosages, schedules, and routes of administration is accurate at the time of publication and consistent with standards set by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the general medical community. As medical research and practice continue to advance, however, therapeutic standards may change. Moreover, specific situations may require a specific therapeutic response not included in this book. For these reasons and because human and mechanical errors sometimes occur, we recommend that readers follow the advice of physicians directly involved in their care or the care of a member of their family.
Books published by American Psychiatric Association Publishing represent the findings, conclusions, and views of the individual authors and do not necessarily represent the policies and opinions of American Psychiatric Association Publishing or the American Psychiatric Association.

Dedication
ROBERT I. SIMON (19342016)
Be an opener of doors for such as come after thee.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
We dedicate this volume to Robert I. Simon, M.D., the lead editor of the first and second editions of The American Psychiatric Publishing Textbook of Forensic Psychiatry. Dr. Simon was awarded the American Academy of Psychiatry and the Law and the American Psychiatric Associations joint Manfred S. Guttmacher Award three times for outstanding contributions to the literature of forensic psychiatry. He was also awarded the American Psychiatric Associations Isaac Ray Award in recognition of his outstanding contributions to the fields of forensic psychiatry and the psychiatric aspects of jurisprudence.
Dr. Simon understood the need for a textbook of forensic psychiatry, particularly one accessible to general and forensic psychiatrists alike. He was the moving force behind both the first and the second editions of this text. Dr. Simon was gratified to be Editor Emeritus for this third edition and, as always, planned to make his own contribution to the text.
