Dealing with Disaffection by Tim Newburn
Disaffected youth has been a subject of increasing attention in recent years, and one of the most talked about forms of intervention in this difficult area has been 'mentoring'. This book, based on a large-scale research study, examines the lives of a large group of 'disaffected' young people, and considers the impact that involvement in a mentoring programme had on them.'A very important and illuminating evaluation of a British mentoring programme.. of great interest to all criminologists and researchers on youth problems.' − David Farrington, University of Cambridge, UK
'This is an important work, one whose dual focus (programme and evaluation) will no doubt resonate with practitioners and Criminologists alike.' − Bryan Hogeveen, University of Alberta, Canada
