A timely, eye-opening book on the youth violence that has galvanised America, this book pinpoints and probes the etiology of this escalating trend, which is found in urban, suburban and rural contexts. The authors analyse five types of youth violence: child abuse and violence; aggression among girls; school violence; substance abuse and violence; gang violence. This critical volume assesses the current situation and examines recent prevention and treatment innovations for violent youths. It weighs in by concluding that violence is caused by multiple factors from individual to community-level domains and that solutions are found at the prevention, treatment, and policy-making levels.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
