520    "When teenagers scuffle during a basketball game, they are
       typically benched. But when Will got into it on the court,
       he and his rival were sprayed in the face at close range 
       by a chemical similar to Mace, denied a shower for twenty-
       four hours, and then locked in solitary confinement for a 
       month.  One in three American children will be arrested by
       the time they are twenty-three, and many will spend time 
       locked inside horrific detention centers that defy 
       everything we know about how to rehabilitate young 
       offenders. In a clear-eyed indictment of the juvenile 
       justice system run amok, award-winning journalist Nell 
       Bernstein shows that there is no right way to lock up a 
       child. The very act of isolation denies delinquent 
       children the thing that is most essential to their growth 
       and rehabilitation: positive relationships with caring 
       adults.  Bernstein introduces us to youth across the 
       nation who have suffered violence and psychological 
       torture at the hands of the state. She presents these 
       youths all as fully realized people, not victims. As they 
       describe in their own voices their fight to maintain their
       humanity and protect their individuality in environments 
       that would deny both, these young people offer a hopeful 
       alternative to the doomed effort to reform a system that 
       should only be dismantled.  Burning Down the House is a 
       clarion call to shut down our nation's brutal and 
       counterproductive juvenile prisons and bring our children 
       home. "--|cProvided by publisher.
