This book--arguably the longest longitudinal study of age, crime, and the life course to date--analyzes data on crime and social development up to age 70 for 500 men who were remanded to reform school in the 1940s. The authors find that men who desisted from crime were rooted in structural routines and had strong social ties to family and community.
