Guarino-Ghezzi and Loughran have written a book that needs to be read not only by students in sociology and criminal justice but also by law students and legislators. This work sets forth some very real policy options for dealing with the vexing issue of juvenile law violators. --J. C. Watkins Jr., Choice This book contains a comprehensive discussion of the primary policy considerations that should be used in striking a balance between holding youths responsible for their past actions and providing for their welfare. --Perspectives on Political Science In a world in which the continued existence of a separate juvenile justice system can no longer be taken for granted, the clear-eyed realism of this book is a welcome contribution to the too often shrill debate on the future of juvenile justice. --Criminology
