Review

"This is an eloquent book from a judge who has been 'in the trenches' dealing with young serious offenders for a considerable time. This is an intriguing book that hopefully, will gain a wide audience and trigger a national debate, both within and outside the juvenile justice system, about the wisdom of the policies we have been following for about the past two decades. That seems to be Judge Corriero's intention and he has achieved it in a highly skilled and readable fashion." Juvenile Justice Update "Corriero employs his experience to good effect in outlining the challenges of balancing society's interest in being safe with the desire to avoid transforming a youthful offender into a career criminal."--Publishers Weekly "combines a scholar' thoroughness with the unique insights of a judge trying children in an adult court. He rails against the stark failures of the current juvenile and criminal justice systems in handling troubles adolescents, but then he pushes us to pursue a hybrid system which would improve children's' lives and keep our communities safer." Victor Streib, author of Death penalty for Juveniles "The book reveals Judge Corriero's passion for justice and due process through his daily experiences, supported by extensive research; it is both personal and academic, instructive and moving. It is political and philosophical." The New York Law Journal "Judging Children as Children is highly readable as an enthralling look at how a judge works, as well as a reference volume for those interested in juvenile justice. It is well written and timely. It accurately captures the no-nonsense approach of this judge as well as his huge heart." Child & Adolescent Psychiatry "Corriero deserves much praise for his thoughtfully critical challenge to the policy of prosecuting children as adults. At the least, Corriero's strong embrace of a revised legal structure for juvenile justice, planted firmly in the soil of judging children as children, should foment interest in further exploration of this thorny legal terrain. Criminologists, child advocates, criminal justice experts, child development specialists, judges, lawyers, public policy makers, legislators, social workers, behavioral scientists, psychologists and psychiatrists are among those who professionally may benefit greatly from scrutiny of the information and ideas put forth by Corriero." Metapsychology Online, 27th January 2009
