Abstract
Responding positively to Hazel Kemshall's article on 'Risk in Probation Practice' (June 1995), Professor Herschel Prins of the Midlands Centre for Criminology and Criminal Justice at Loughborough University suggests a number of key areas of concern in weighing dangerousness, emphasises the importance of clear information about past behaviour, and suggests seven awkward but essential questions which can aid assessment.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
