"The major strengths of this textbook is its comprehensiveness and in-depth presentation of all of the major topics in juvenile delinquency and juvenile justice." "This book does a good job of covering what I believe to be the key areas in juvenile delinquency. The book is generally effective in covering the important theories of the causes and correlates of juvenile delinquency, and I like the fact that there are separate chapters on Gender, Gangs, and Drug Use." "The terms, concepts and writing in this text is very good. Examples are used to reinforce the text."
This comprehensive, best-selling text provides an in-depth analysis of the theories of delinquency, environmental issues, juvenile justice issues, and the juvenile justice system. Renowned for its exhaustive research base, this book presents cutting-edge, seminal research, as well as up-to-the-minute policy and news-worthy examples. Offering objective, to-the-minute presentation of juvenile delinquency theory and juvenile justice policy issues, the authors examine opposing sides of controversial aspects of delinquency and delinquency programs in a balanced, unbiased way. Rewritten for greater clarity, this thoroughly revised edition also achieves new heights of student accessibility through increased pedagogical aids, including the addition of marginal "InfoTrac College Edition Research" boxes, marginal "Web Link" boxes, MicroCase exercises, "Viewpoint" end-of-chapter InfoTrac College Edition features, and a much stronger, broader package of student resources offered via the book-specific Web site. This edition also provides students a gateway to online and multimedia resources that capture the immediacy of the field through CNN video, CD-ROM, and the Internet.
