Opis

In the aftermath of the latest incidences of school violence, Kids Kil ling Kids: Managing Violence and Gangs in Schools tackles the tough qu estions: How to find out which students are potentially violent? What do to do with them? Is there an epidemic of children whose psychologic al problems go undetected until they erupt in violence? Are the parent s really responsible? Parents, administrators, fellow students, the m edia: we all look for someone to blame. Kids who look or act different fall under suspicion. The cry goes out for more gun control, less vio lence in television, movies and video games. President Clinton calls a conference to address violence in the media.

Recenzje

"They make good use of their studies of workplace violence to inform school officials of the type of action plan they must not only develop but implement as well…should be read by anyone who is concerned about violence in the schools, and especially by teachers and school administrators."
--J. F. Biter, in CHOICE, Vol. 37, No. 10
