The most recent of a series of books examining the characteristics, causes, treatment, and consequences of antisocial behavior in children and youths, this volume by the Oregon Social Learning Center (OSLC) team examines the behavioral processes that build and sustain deviant interactions between children and their families (as well as teachers and others). Professors Patterson and Reid have been working on this topic for more than 40 years and they have examined these processes using many different scientific methods. They have assembled chapters from an all-star cast of people with whom they have worked during that time and the contributed chapters cover both the development of and intervention in antisocial behavior.

During my graduate studies, I worked with this research group for a bit more than a year; I learned a tremendous amount from the interactions and readings I had during that period.
