Juvenile Delinquency: Theory, Practice, and Law cover

Unrivaled in its current coverage, Siegel's best-selling JUVENILE DELINQUENCY: THEORY, PRACTICE, AND LAW, 14E presents the historical development of the concept of childhood and delinquency as well as the latest research on when, where and why juvenile crime occurs. With a highly praised balanced approach and engaging writing style, this edition uses thought-provoking discussions of the latest trends to capture your interest as you examine the latest data on issues such as mental disorders and social and environmental causes of delinquency. Each chapter presents numerous complex and detailed scenarios, many based on real life cases, followed by critical-thinking questions. You examine current issues, such as how today's gangs recruit members in cyberspace, how the COVID pandemic has influenced teen drug use, trends in school shootings and crime and how delinquency is addressed around the world. MindTap digital resources are also available to apply what you've learned.
