This well-written book combines theory and practice by describing the juvenile justice system as a comprehensive whole that is part of the community. It is influenced by the various subsystems and sometimes fails to adequately serve youth in need. Readers will learn how to work in the system and effectively serve the youth in their communities. Its unique treatment of the juvenile justice system includes such topics as: juvenile delinquency, gang-related violence, police and the juvenile offender, the court system, diversion programs, community-based sanctions and juvenile institutions, and goals and effectiveness of the system. Its coverage of decision-making, bureaucracy and organization, and power and politics is unsurpassed. For any employee of the juvenile justice system, including those in law enforcement, therapists and social workers, and those involved in the legal arena.
