Description: "This book combines offender, victim, and environmental perspectives to show how leading theories of crime are correctly and incorrectly applied to the school environment. It also evaluates data on a range of crimes at school ranging from theft to violence to verbal and physical assault and evaluates prevention strategies"--

Review Quotes: "[The authors] meticulously examine the correlations between offending and victimization behaviors among students and their relationships to the characteristics of a given school environment. This intentionally curated and evidence-based text echoes the significance of the current issue of school violence, which unfortunately has become a reality of the education system. This book will serve readers across all sectors as a valuable contribution to the effort to change the education landscape for future generations.... Summing Up: Recommended."--Choice
