One of the most vital, dynamic little books that it has been the good fortune of the reviewer to see in many a day. It is filled with all sorts of interesting things—thought—compelling suggestions and illuminating, illustrative case material. It comes directly from the work shop of an interested and keen observer in juvenile court work. It is highly satisfying to the psychiatrist to see the principles which have been worked out in the laboratory of his experience, being applied so intelligently in making social adjustments. It is no criticism that the analysis and interpretation of the individual cases does not go as far as he would like to see it from the standpoint of his psychoanalytic predilections. It is on the contrary most satisfying that these principles can receive a practical and useful application to so large a material as streams through the juvenile courts. This book will bear most careful reading by every interested psychiatric and juvenile court worker and by all those who are interested in this new and exceedingly important social movement to correct anti—social conduct and turn energies which have been destructive into more useful channels.
