Young People and Offending By Martin Stephenson Published by Willan Price 19.50 ISBN 1 84392 154 5.
The author of this book, Martin Stephenson, was chief executive of Include, the largest provider of education to excluded children in the UK, a founder member of the Youth Justice Board and a senior policy adviser involved in designing the Connexions strategy.
The book deals adeptly with a range of theoretical perspectives and a plethora of policy initiatives. It endeavours, probably for the first time in the UK, to bring research evidence from youth justice and education together, and if the result is somewhat inconclusive, the problem lies with the research rather than the author.
