Title: Causes of conduct disorder and juvenile delinquency
Description: "This volume brings together an international group of leading authorities to advance specific, testable hypotheses about causal factors and mechanisms in conduct disorder and juvenile delinquency. The intent is to invite other researchers to test these causal hypotheses, paving the way not only for theoretical advances but ultimately for progress in prevention and treatment. Providing a summary of cutting-edge thinking across different disciplines and levels of analysis, this book is essential reading for anyone studying or working with young people at risk." "Filling a gap in the literature, this book belongs on the desks of researchers and practitioners in clinical, child, and developmental psychology; child and adolescent psychiatry; criminology, and related disciplines. It will serve as a text in advanced undergraduate- or graduate-level courses."--Jacket.
