Youth Violence - A Selective Bibliography with Abstracts (Hardcover)

What is happening to the social fabric of America? Children are afraid to go to school for fear that another lunatic will decide to shoot up the student body. School administrators refuse to acknowledge that school security is their responsibility. Parents ignore their children who can access internet at the flick of a wrist to find out detailed instructions on bomb assembly. TV movies and video games encourage violence. The NRA says guns are not the problem -- people are. Meanwhile, the country is led by a president no one will ever mistake for a role model nor can trust to ever tell the truth about anything. Given this atrocious scenario, no one should be surprised that youth violence lurks behind every school house door.

This easy-to-use bibliography groups over 1500 citations, many with abstracts from the journal literature, books, government reports and edited collections, under the headings of: School Safety, School Violence, Guns and Youth, Internet Violence, Parental Neglect and Societal Responsibility.
