The aim of this booklet is to explore the nature of dangerousness in all its forms. The most common perception is of one person presenting a danger to others, but often people are a danger to themselves, either through suicide or deliberate self harm. Also looks at the different ways in which dangerousness is perceived by literature and the media and explores the way in which public perceptions of dangerousness can impact upon different groups of people, particularly those with mental health problems or from minority ethnic groups. Concludes with a review of current research.
