Clear explanations of the concepts and thought-provoking case studies move students beyond memorization-encouraging them to think critically about juvenile delinquency and make recommendations for better practices and policies"-- Provided by publisher.

Autor

Christopher A. Mallett, Professor of Social Work, teaches delinquency, research methods, and statistics graduate and undergraduate courses at Cleveland State University. Dr. Mallett is licensed in Ohio as a social worker and attorney and has a twenty-five-year history of working with, advocating for, and representing vulnerable adolescents and their families. His research focuses on juvenile delinquency, incarceration, and school pathways to the juvenile justice system and the impact of trauma, mental health issues, and special education (learning) disabilities. Of significant concern is the disparate impact on students of color and young people who identify as LGBTQ+. As a consultant whose expertise is utilized nationally by juvenile and family courts, school districts, and children's service agencies, Dr. Mallett has published four books and more than 75 research papers, book chapters, and technical assistance training briefs on these topics. Miyuki Fukushima Tedor is a professor in the Department of Criminology and Sociology at Cleveland State University. She received BA degrees in philosophy, psychology, and sociology and MA and PhD degrees in sociology. Her research is focused on cross-national testing of theories of crime and delinquency, gender and crime, juvenile delinquency, and drug and alcohol use and crime. She has taught in these areas for many years. Professor Tedor is originally from Japan and enjoys talking to her students about what it was like growing up there.
