THIS SOURCEBOOK DOES NOT COVER THE FEMALE JUVENILE OFFENDER, NOR DOES IT DISCUSS RAPE OR LEGAL ISSUES OF WOMEN IN GENERAL. INSTEAD, IT FOCUSES ON THE GROWING BODY OF LITERATURE ON FEMALE CRIMINALITY. THE ANNOTATED SECTION IS ORGANIZED ALPHABETICALLY BY AUTHOR'S LAST NAME UNDER THE FOLLOWING CATEGORIES: BOOKS AND PARTS OF BOOKS, JOURNALS AND PARTS OF JOURNALS, DOCUMENTS, REPORTS, SURVEYS AND SPECIAL STUDIES, AND DISSERTATIONS. THE NONANNOTATED SECTION FOLLOWS THE SAME FORMAT. TWO ATTACHMENTS DESCRIBE FIVE PROJECTS FUNDED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR, EMPLOYMENT AND TRAINING ADMINISTRATION FOR WOMEN OFFENDERS AND 43 GRANTS FUNDED BY LEAA IN 1974-1975 FOR PROJECTS SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR WOMEN OFFENDERS OR ONES WHICH SERVE BOTH WOMEN AND MEN.
