Simon and Sadoff have come to the rescue of those still siting on the fence trying to decide whether blurring the boundaries of the therapeutic relationship can survive a risk\/benefit analysis.

Although \u003ci\u003ePsychiatric Malpractice\u003c\/i\u003e is not intended specifically to be a legal treatise, it is refreshing to note that Drs. Simon and Sadof exude a sophistication about the law that is not commonly found among members of the medical profession unless they have attended or completed formal legal training. . . .
