Originally published in 1922, Juvenile Delinquency was written while the author was Director of the Ohio Bureau of Juvenile Research. He believed that juvenile delinquency could be prevented and therefore a large part of adult criminality could be eradicated. He states in the preface that the book does not tell you how this will be achieved: 'It contains no cut and dried solution. But ... it may help advertise the fact that there is a small body of people who think they see a ray of light in the darkness. ...'. Today it can be read in its historical context.

This book is a re-issue originally published in 1922. The language used and views portrayed are a reflection of its era and no offence is meant by the Publishers to any reader by this re-publication.
