What should be done with minors who kill, maim, defile, and destroy the lives of others? The state of Texas deals with some of its most serious and violent youthful offenders through "determinate sentencing," a unique sentencing structure that blends parts of the juvenile and adult justice systems. Once adjudicated via determinate sentencing, offenders are first incarcerated in the Texas Youth Commission (TYC). As they approach age eighteen, they are either transferred to the Texas prison system to serve the remainder of their original determinate sentence or released from TYC into Texas's communities. The first long-term study of determinate sentencing in Texas, Lost Causes examines the social and delinquent histories, institutionalization experiences, and release and recidivism outcomes of more than 3,000 serious and violent juvenile offenders who received such sentences between 1987 and 2011. The authors seek to understand the process, outcomes, and consequences of determinate sentencing, which gave serious and violent juvenile offenders one more chance to redeem themselves or to solidify their place as the next generation of adult prisoners in Texas. The book's findings-that about 70 percent of offenders are released to the community during their most crime-prone years instead of being transferred to the Texas prison system and that about half of those released continue to reoffend for serious crimes-make Lost Causes crucial reading for all students and practitioners of juvenile and criminal justice.

Die Entstehungsgeschichte dieses Bandes reicht weit zuriick. Schon wahrend der Arbeit an dem Cytoplasma-Teil des Handbuches in den friihen fiinfziger J ahren war unter Leitung von F. HfrCHNER ein Konzept fUr die Darstellung des Zellkernes entworfen worden, das zunachst auch ziigig ausgefiillt wurde. Indessen, mit dem Beginn der neuen, vor allem von Elektronenmikroskopie und Cytobiochemie getragenen Ara der Karyologie geriet die weitere E?-twicklung ins Stocken. Jeder Versuch, die Flut der neuen Erkenntnisse durch Anderungen oder Erganzungen des bereits Formulierten einzufangen, lief3 nur ein unerfreuliches und unhaltbares Flickwerk zuriick. Es blieb also keine andere Wahl, als auf alles bereits Fixierte zu verzichten. Einem neuen Beginn standen aber fiirs erste uniiberwindliche Schwierigkeiten entgegen: Die neuen Befunde iiberstiirzten sich und erschiitterten scheinbar festgefiigte Thesen, vermochten zunachst jedoch nur spezielle, aber keine allgemeingiiltigen Gesetzmaf3igkeiten zu vermitteln. Man muf3te also abwarten, bis eine gewisse Beruhigung der Situation eingetreten war, bis sich neue Ordnungs prinzipien abzeichneten, Verbindungsglieder zu friiheren, vielfach vergessenen Befunden sichtbar wurden und eine Zusammenschau alter und neuer Daten moglich erschien. Allerdings bedurfte es jetzt, im Ganzen und in Teilen, eines vollig F. BUCHNER, neuen Entwurfes, der wiederum dem ersten Betreuer dieses Bandes, zu danken ist, und dessen Realisation mit dem hier vorliegenden Abschnitt beginnt. Mit der detaillierten Darstellung der Chromosomen solI die Grundlage fiir das Verstandnis von Kernstruktur und Kernfunktion geliefert werden."
