Reviews
Bernard Schissel, Professor and Program Head, Doctor of Social Sciences Program, Royal Roads University:
This is a significant piece of work on the marginalization of youth ... It is not only a fine example of interview-based qualitative analysis but also an exemplar of communicating research in a clear, defensible -- and socially relevant -- way. This subject is of the utmost importance, especially in a modern context in which the welfare and rights of young people are more and more in question and in which marginalization and privation are becoming greater social stigmas.
