520 # $a This research presents an historical review of the insanity defense. It begins with an overview of the insanity defense, including some of the common misconceptions about it. Following, is a review of the rehabilitative model of criminal justice and how it influenced the interpretation of the various tests of insanity (M'Naghten, Irresistible Impulse, New Hampshire and Durham Experiments, and American Law Institute). Next, is a review of the punitive model of criminal justice, including several punitive theories and how they have shifted the focus of interpretation of the insanity defense. Then, is a discussion of the benefits and problems with this defense. The final chapter includes an alternative insanity defense policy which incorporates what has been learned through research and practice over the last several hundred years about this defense and those who use it.
