Handbook of Assessment and Treatment of Female Crime and Violence, Hardback Book

Handbook of Assessment and Treatment of Female Crime and Violence Hardback

Edited by Corine De Ruiter, Tonia L. (University of British Columbia, Canada) Nicholls

Part of the International Forensic Science and Investigation series

Hardback

Description

Discourse on female crime and violence has been increasing in recent years in response to hotly debated claims that women and girls are increasingly involved in violence and crime and the extent to which this reflects actual changes in behavior versus altered policies and practices (e.g., three strikes laws; drug offenses) that are increasingly criminalizing already marginalized girls and women (e.g., impoverished, ethnic minorities, prostitutes).

An in-depth examination of the empirical knowledge base on violence and criminal offending in girls and women provides scholars and policy makers with critical information on this neglected topic.
