The book shows the results of a research project about the prevalence and the causes of school absenteeism.
The effects of family, school and peers are examined.
There are risk factors in all three areas of life.
Empirical results show that there is a link between truancy and criminal behaviour.
Recommendations for preventing and dealing with truancy are deduced.

For the first time truancy is examined as a sociological problem.
