Abstract

This volume is the fourth of a series on criminal science, authorized by the American Institute of Criminal Law and Criminology. It is composed chiefly of case reports of the lives of incorrigible girls, with an analysis from the point of view of the psychologist. In this instance, the point of view leans strongly to the Freudian belief that sex repression and transmutation are the main features of etiology and prophylaxis. This point of view is particularly emphasized by the chapter headings: The Wishes, The Regulation of Wishes, The Individualization of Behavior, The Demoralization of the Girls, Social Agencies and Social Influence. The volume is definitely of the type that considers the unadjusted girl as a patient to be cured rather than as a criminal. It is an interesting and serious contribution to social science.
