Adolescence and Delinquency An

This book applies modern object-relations theory to a population for which the treatment du jour is increasingly cognitive-behavioral. Taking his lead from the delinquent adolescents in his practice, he presents a treatment approach in which adolescents are related to as people, rather than as transitory objects passing through a 'stage.' The book presents theory and case examples in a dialectical relationship, illuminating the seamlessness of theory and application.

Bruce R. Brodie is adjunct professor at the California School of Professional Psychology at Alliant University and is associate director at the Saturday Center for Psychotherapy.
