Youth Justice by Stephen Case
This book provides a comprehensive and critical introduction to youth justice in England and Wales, offering a balanced evaluation of its development, rationale, nature and evidence base. It explores the evolution of definitions and explanations of youth offending and examines the responses to it that constitute youth justiceSteve Case’s "Youth Justice - A Critical Introduction" provides an essential introduction to youth justice in England and Wales, indeed I’d say is the essential introductory text, and as such fills a gap last occupied when Donald West first published his seminal ‘The Young Offender’ in 1967Stimulating, balanced, but with a committed and challenging edge to it, no student, youth justice practitioner, or policy maker should allow themselves to be far away from a copy.
