Recenzii
“There is no comparable work. Useful for anyone doing research in the field of juvenile justice. Highly recommended.”
“What makes this work truly usable is its wonderful indexing and exceptional bibliographies. . . . If juvenile interaction with the judicial system is a research topic at your school, this volume is one of the best sources.”
"The contributors consistently present complex material with a readable style relatively free of technical jargon. Accordingly, this outstanding reference work is highly recommended for school and public library collections, as well as academic libraries and criminal justice collections."
"This attractively produced Encyclopedia, with many well-written and informative articles, will surely be a useful resource for any party seeking basic information on a range of topics related to juvenile delinquency and juvenile justice. It can be recommended for purchase by public libraries as well as college and university libraries and those serving a scholarly community with an interest in juvenile justice issues."
"This new reference guide explores these historical trends and the nature of the juvenile justice process today. From Edwin Sutherland to Marvin Wolfgang, the research and writing of leading theorists in juvenile criminology is examined. . . . The entries emphasize the research foundations of juvenile justice theory and provide numerous suggestions for further research. Although aimed at an academic audience, this guide will also serve public libraries."
