Book Description
This book is the result of a two year, comprehensive review of the available evidence relating to delinquency by young people. Written by a child psychiatrist, a criminologist and a social psychologist, the book tackles the problems of antisocial behaviour from a variety of angles and addresses all of the important questions: What causes young people to misbehave? Why do they into trouble with the law? What can be done to prevent delinquency and what can be done to get these young people's lives back on track? It is intended primarily for an academic audience.
