Description: "The 1970s witnessed a growing concern and awareness regarding child abuse, an awareness which gradually extended to include the maltreatment of adolescents.

Troubled Youth, Troubled Families is one of the first full-length reports to deal with adolescent abuse."--Provided by publisher
