Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Two Prize Essays on Juvenile Deliquency
The aim of the First Chapter is to furnish the reader with the means of arriving at a correct conclusion on the present state and aspects of juvenile depravity. B y a comparison of con?icting theories, and an attempt to reconcile counter statements with one another, it is hoped the reader will be convinced that juvenile depravity is neither on the increase, so as to occasion alarm; nor on the decrease, so as to justify indifference. The anomalous state of children in our large towns is, by admissions on all hands, shown to be the natural result of simple, but wide-spread neglect on the part of the classes above.
