The FBI and the Department of Justice point out that while the overall crime rates have remained fairly steady in recent years, the arrest rates for juveniles accused of violent crimes have risen dramatically. In addition, experts contend that a growing population of adolescent males will lead to a wave of crime in the early years of the twenty-first century. "America is a ticking violent crime bomb, and there is little time remaining to prepare for the blast," the Council of Crime in America warns. Contributors to this anthology grapple with the various challenges posed by the problem of crime and violence committed by society's youngest members. - Introduction.
