A New Era for Mental Health Law and Policy: Supported Decision-Making and the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities is a book by Australian socio-legal scholar Piers Gooding published in 2017. The book, which is based on Gooding's PhD thesis, explores the implications of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) for the field of mental health law. The main focus on the book is how the CRPD and Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities call for a move away from the use of compulsive psychiatric intervention toward a system of supported decision making.
