N2  - Some account is given of a small group of offender/patients defined as dangerous or potentially dangerous. Reasons are put forward in an attempt to explain an apparent reluctance to work with such clients and the unease that often occurs when so doing. It is suggested that an approach may be required to such offender/patients which differs in some respects from more traditional modes of treatment. Emphasis is placed upon the need for careful observation of material facts and events in the lives of such clients in addition to the careful observation of the manifestations of feelings and attitudes which may give premonition of dangerous or potentially dangerous behaviour<p />
