Can we change violent minds?
In her final Reith Lecture, Dr Gwen Adshead asks if we can change violent minds?
In her final 2024 大象传媒 Reith lecture, forensic psychiatrist Dr Gwen Adshead, assesses how we deal with violent offenders and asks is it time for a rethink?
Dr Adshead assesses the effectiveness and impact of therapeutic interventions with offenders in prisons. And she asks if the public needs to change their minds about violent perpetrators.
The programme is recorded in front of an audience in Bergen, Norway, a country which has a long tradition of rehabilitating violent offenders.
