High school graduation is individually experienced and especially beneficial to those at high risk of dropping out. It also redirects adult offending trajectories by opening opportunities for experiencing adulthood turning point such as employment and romantic relationships. Liu's work provides empirical support for life course criminology and expands our knowledge about turning points by emphasizing that these events may occur at different stage 410 0$aCriminal Justice: Recent Scholarship 606 $aEducation and crime$zUnited States 606 $aHigh school dropouts$zUnited States$xSocial conditions 606 $aCriminals$zUnited States 615 0$aEducation and crime 615 0$aHigh school dropouts$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aCriminals 676 $a364.30973 700 $aLiu$b Weiwei$f1979-$01471383 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786291703321 996 $aThe adult offending and school dropout nexus$93683673 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02081nam 22003853 450 001 9910861976003321 005 20230807203658.0 010 $a1-970001-37-2 035 $a(CKB)5280000000190012 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6955510 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL6955510 035 $a(OCoLC)1048183268 035 $a(EXLCZ)995280000000190012 100 $a20220425d2015 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aEdmund Berkeley and the Social Responsibility of Computer Professionals 210 1$aSan Rafael :$cMorgan & Claypool Publishers,$d2015. 210 4$dİ2015. 215 $a1 online resource (223 pages) 225 1 $aACM Bks. 330 $aThis book is the first full-length biography of Edmund Berkeley, a computer pioneer and social activist who has been called "the conscience of the computer industry." Through his work with other early computer developers, he became aware of the potential dangers of these machines to society at large. He believed that computer developers had an obligation to address the complex social problems facing a Cold War world; the threat of suicidal nuclear war and the ethics of computer professionals using their expertise to build self-guided weapons systems. This is an historical narrative of a man ultimately in favor of engineering peace, instead of war, and how his career was ultimately damaged by politicians determined to portray him as a Communist sympathizer. Berkeley's life work provides a lens to understand social and political issues surrounding the early development of electronic computers which ties directly to current debates about the use of autonomous intelligent systems. 410 0$aACM Bks. 676 $a004.092 700 $aLongo$b Bernadette$01740557 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910861976003321 996 $aEdmund Berkeley and the Social Responsibility of Computer Professionals$94166272 997 $aUNINA
