5.0 out of 5 stars Antisocial Behavior in School: Strategies and Best Practice, July 19, 2000
By Laura J Matson (Puyallup, WA USA) - See all my reviews
Awesome Book! Useful, practical and research based ideas for all educators. It doesn't present short term "magic cures," however those really never work anyway. Instead the focus is on long term solutions for prevention & intervention with these tough kids. A must for your professional library (however, start saving those pennies, it is a little pricey).

3.0 out of 5 stars Can be more concise., September 22, 2007
In general, this is a fine book. It discussed the risks factors of developing antisocial behaviors. It also gives some ideas on the principles and best-practices of preventing or intervening antisocial behaviors. It is an academic textbook with lots of theory and data so is a good reference book for teachers. On the other hand, I feel the same messages are repeated over and over again, with different twists, that the best way to advert antisocial behaviors are two: (1) early prevention, and (2) comprehensive (meaning to involve as many people as possible.) I think the book can be shorter and perhaps less expensive.
