As a quarterly publication, each issue will deal in depth with a particular facet of forensic mental health from multiple disciplinary viewpoints. The editorial policy for such thematic presentations is stated succinctly below: Behavioral Sciences and the Law is a new inter- disciplinary journal emphasizing the thematic presenta- tion of contemporary and often controversial issues in- volving the mental health-law interface. Each issue of the journal will present a specific topic related to both theory and practice of Behavioral Sciences and the Law. Articles will emphasize different perspectives, theoretical orientations and disciplines. The Journal encourages original creative discussions and synthesis in the designated topical areas, and aims for a better understanding of complex relationships between law and the behavioral sciences. In presenting often con- troversial issues from diverse but scholarly viewpoints, the Journal will foster informed debate and expanded understanding in areas of related interest in law, psychiatry, and the behavioral sciences. A reasonable balance between scholarship and readability is sought in the manuscripts solicited by the editors or submitted by prospective authors.
