“Olga Siegmunt’s book presents the results of the criminological research in the three big Russian cities with about one million inhabitants and more. … The author poses useful questions and then answers them afterwards. It allows readers to be involved in the thought process. The book can be recommended to a broad audience of criminologists, psychologists, educators, social workers, and so on. The results obtained can be successfully used to improve juvenile delinquency prevention measures, especially in social pedagogic fields.” (Anastasiia Monner Lukash, International Journal of Comparative and Applied Criminal Justice, January, 2017)
