This book surveys female juvenile delinquency, an important topic often receiving minimal attention in books on women and crime. The authors of articles represent some of the leading scholars in the field - Claire Renzetti, Frank Cullen, and, of course, Meda Chesney-Lind. This reader accompanies "The Female Offender".
