Antisocial Behavior by Young People

Antisocial Behavior by Young People by Michael Rutter

Written by a child psychiatrist, a criminologist and a social psychologist, Antisocial Behavior by Young People is a major international review of research evidence on antisocial behavior. The book covers all aspects of the field, including descriptions of different types of delinquency and time trends, the state of knowledge on the individual, social-psychological and cultural factors involved, and recent advances in prevention and intervention. The authors bring together a wide range of disciplinary perspectives in order to provide a comprehensive account of antisocial behaviour in youth.

'Antisocial Behavior by Young People will undoubtedly be a valuable addition to the libraries of those investigating antisocial and criminal behaviorMoreover, the volume will be equally helpful to those responsible for developing prevention and intervention programs and policies directed toward the amelioration of such problems in youth. I know of no better book on this topic and consider it a 'must read'.' Dante Cicchetti, Ph.D. Director, Mt, Hope Family Center, University of Rochester
