Description

This textbook/anthology would provide students, researchers, and practitioners working in the field of young offenders and youth criminal justice with the seminal Canadian theoretical and research papers collected in a single volume.  Therefore,  the target audience is primarily undergraduate and graduate courses, and, secondarily, faculty, and professionals working in the field of youth justice who have access to the most recent research in Canada. "The collection would be of interest to professionals in the field as well as upper level students who have an interest in youth violence.  It covers a broad range of specialized topics from the incidence and prevalence of serious/violent youth behaviour to effective ways of assessing and responding to youth violence. There is no question that this is a valuable collection. To my knowledge, this is the only text on the market in Canada that will bring together the key articles on this important topic.  It is also the only collection that will appeal and be of use to upper level students and professionals."      Review by Professor Sandra Bell,  Department of Sociology and Criminology,  St. Mary's University
