Exploring the disparity in antisocial behavior between genders, this book delves into the reasons why females are seldom antisocial while males frequently are. A multidisciplinary team examines findings from the Dunedin Longitudinal Study, shedding light on factors such as puberty's role, psychiatric diagnostic challenges, domestic violence, and how antisocial behavior can be passed down through generations. The work offers a comprehensive analysis of the causes, development, and implications of antisocial behavior, making it a significant contribution to the field.
