Críticas

"I found the text to be exceptional in its organization. It flows through topics in a very logical and appropriate manner, conducive to the coverage of the material and needs of the student." "Good balance between theoretical approaches and substantive areas as to explaining why juveniles become delinquent. The coverage of the Juvenile Justice system is complete and balanced and the recent addition of the chapter on delinquency and juvenile justice abroad is an excellent one, giving students a better perspective on the issues involved in juvenile justice."
