Girls, Delinquency, and Juvenile Justice
Number of pages:

ABSTRACT:
A 5 page book review and analysis of Girls, Delinquency, and Juvenile Justice by Meda Chesney-Lind and Randall G. Shelden. These authors make an excellent argument that the topic of female delinquency has been serious neglected, or shoehorned to fit pre-existing theories on delinquency that are predicated on male experience. The authors argue that there are distinct differences between male and female delinquency that large derives from an increased incidence of both sexual and physical abuse experienced by girls. No additional sources cited.
