Juvenile Delinquency
This book is a very informative book. It's not the most interesting thing, but most textbooks aren't. :) There are parts where it's very interesting, and all of its good information to know. Larry Siegel tends to write very good textbooks. My book arrived quickly and in perfect condition. When I had a problem on a different book, a discount not being taken off, i contacted them and they replied in the same day, and fix the problem. This is a great website, good textbooks, not much they can do about them, though. They're often times for fairly boring classes. But what they can help with, they do. Quickly, professionally and courteously. Thank you Alibris!
