Product Description
This work is a cross-sectional analysis of school disturbance as it has evolved from the inception of schools in colonial America. In their introduction, the authors provide a general overview of American school disturbance, the extent of their disturbances, and possible causes. They then examine the topic in detail, with chapters on disturbances in the Colonial period, the Early National period, the Common School period, the Progressive period, and the Kaleidoscopic period. By examining how school disturbances relate to social and educational developments, Crews and Counts provide a valuable research and teaching tool for courses in criminal justice foundations, juvenile issues, and educational foundations.

Reviews


I am hooked on Gordon Crews
This book was so informative. I was studying school violence but after reading this book I immediately purchased "Chasing Shadows." Dr. Crews is so insightful with his writings that I became enthralled with juvenile violence. I look forward to reading more books by Gordon Crews.

Great Book!
This is a great book, because it gives the idea through five different topics. It also, gives ideas to help and protect not only in the school but also at home, in the neighborhood, and in the community. I was looking for a book about "School Violence," and this book help a lot.
