The Handbook of Life-Course Criminology covers genetics and environment, child offenders and late bloomers, the impact of school and peers, lifelong and time-limited criminal careers, and qualitative and quantitative methodologies. This unique Handbook is further set apart by its dual coverage of the leading edge of current research and innovative directions for future work in the field. Pathways to crime have been a central concept of criminology from its inception. Accordingly, a lifespan approach to the field has replaced earlier biological and sociological perspectives with a more nuanced understanding of offender behavior and a wider lens of study. The contributions to this Handbook break down issues of criminal and antisocial behavior from early childhood to late adulthood, examining developmentally targeted prevention and intervention strategies and reviewing emerging trends in research. Among the topics: -Childhood: physical aggression in childhood, pre- and peri-natal development, and environment. -Adolescence: the impact of schooling, unstructured time with peers, gang membership and peer networks. -Adulthood: Adult onset crime, unemployment in emerging adulthood, crime and adult outcomes. -Prevention and Intervention: community programs, lifetime intervention strategies, re-entry. "This Handbook should be required reading for all criminologists." David P. Farrington, Professor of Psychological Criminology, Cambridge University, Cambridge, UK “...it lays out rich agendas for future research that should inspire the next generation of developmental criminologists.” Daniel S. Nagin, Teresa and H. John Heinz III University Professor of Public Policy and Statistics, Carnegie Melon University, Pittsburgh, PA, USA.

This volume contains a selection of chapters based on papers presented at the Fourth Seattle Symposium on Biostatistics: Clinical Trials. These biostatistical symposiums, which unite leading researchers every five years, represent important developments in field. The Fourth Seattle Symposium was held in 2010 to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the University of Washington School of Public Health and Community Medicine. The Symposium featured keynote lectures by Robert O’Neill, Ross Prentice and Robert Temple, as well as invited talks by Jesse Berlin, Christy Chuang-Stein, David DeMets, Bill DuMouchel, Susan Ellenberg, Thomas Fleming, Laurence Freedman, Margaret Pepe, Steve Self, Richard Simon, Bruce Weir, John Whittaker and Janet Wittes.  Invited panelists included Jesse Berlin, Bruce Binkowitz, Christy Chuang-Stein, Bill DuMouchel, Susan Ellenberg, Thomas Fleming, Henry Fuchs, Dominic Labriola, Robert O’Neill, Robert Temple and Janet Wittes. The thoroughly peer-reviewed papers and material from short courses that are showcased in this volume represent the theme of the symposium, clinical trials. These papers encompass recent methodological advances on several important topics, summaries of the state of the art of methodology in key areas of clinical trials, as well as innovative applications of the existing theory and methods. This volume will be a valuable reference for researchers and practitioners in the field of clinical trials.
