註釋This book is a comparative study of delinquency and the government measures devised to counter it in Singapore and Hong Kong, the "two little dragons" in Asia. It looks at the causes of youth crime and examines the strategies for effective handling of the problem. This cross-cultural analysis of the two little dragons' social backgrounds, delinquency rates, and government programs addressing the issue is a result of the authors' strong enthusiasm for the subject and their intense work in compiling and analyzing the data for their respective society. The book also will appeal to a broad spectrum of readers with its insightful case studies of youths who descend into delinquency and crime, balanced by analyses of theories and statistical data. This second edition contains an update of facts, statistical figures and terminology, as well as a new foreword and preface.
