Criminal Behavior: A Pyschosocial Approach - International Edition Upplaga 8

This text approaches the understanding of delinquent and criminal behavior from a developmental, coginitive-behavioral, and psychological perspective.  Viewing the juvenile and adult offender as being embedded and continually influenced by multiple systems, the book examines the risk and protective factors that are believed to influence the developmental pathways on the road to delinquency and crime.  The 8th edition continues to be heavily researched in a style that allows the student to follow the flow of the research literature.
