Juvenile Delinquency in a Diverse Society
- Kristin A. Bates - California State University, San Marcos, USA
- Richelle S. Swan - California State University, San Marcos, USA
Criminology & Criminal Justice (General) | Juvenile/Youth Crime (General) | Sociology (General)
By consistently devoting space to gender, race, and class in each chapter, Bates and Swan demonstrate the importance of these social identities in all facets of juvenile justice and delinquency.
The information in this book is clearly written. It has a lot of medical content as well as social theories.
Good text however the other three sections were using another text so I stayed with that one for consistency sake.
Content is relevant to course outline, student friendly and reflects upon much of the issues and challenges with the local context of Guyana as a multiethnic society.
Provide relevant supportive materials and learning activities.
Excellent text
Very good book. Essential for my course.
