Juvenile Justice: An Introduction, Ninth Edition, presents a comprehensive picture of juvenile offending, delinquency theories, and the ways juvenile justice actors and agencies react to delinquency. Whitehead & Lab cover the history and development of the juvenile justice system and the unique issues related to juveniles, offering evidence-based suggestions for successful interventions and treatment and examining the prospects for re-balancing the model of juvenile court.

This new edition not only includes the latest available statistics on juvenile crime and victimization, drug use, court processing, and corrections, but provides insightful analysis of recent developments. These include the possible influence of biosocial factors on delinquency; use of social media both for recruiting gang members and for combatting gangs; new probation models; responses to cyber bullying; the renewed emphasis on status offenses; the implications of drug legalization; police shootings; specialty courts for teens and those with mental illness; and the latest court decisions regarding Life Without Parole (LWOP) for juveniles. In addition, Chapter 12 has been recast and restructured to cover prevention, including specific information on prevention programs in addition to restorative justice approaches.

Each chapter enhances student understanding with Key Terms, a "What You Need to Know" section highlighting important points, and Discussion Questions. Links at key points in the text show students where they can go to get the latest information, and a revamped glossary aids comprehension.

Recenzijas

"The chief virtues of Juvenile Justice are its readability, comprehensive coverage, strong organization, and design and layout. Graphically, it is superbIt covers topics such as gangs and substance abuse in an engaging, even entertaining way, making it an enjoyable read for students. The way it blends these topics with system components (policing, courts, corrections) is refreshing." Tim Matthews, Eastern Kentucky University

"I think this book is great. It provides a nice historical and theoretical perspective of the field, which I think is important in any class, but it also walks the reader through the juvenile court process. I also like it because it tackles tough issues like gangs and drugs." Philip J. Verrecchia, York College of Pennsylvania
