Dick Selby is the school psychologist at Garfield High School, a school made famous by the movie "Stand and Deliver." Garfield is also the fifth largest high school in the nation. Dick finds himself involved with more emergency cases than any other psychologist in Los Angeles and possibly in the entire United States. From morning until night, he deals with the complex issues of the inner city. Dick shares some of these most important experiences that he has handled, including a varsity football team that goes on a rampage. The stories in this book give strong support to the importance of having a school psychologist who can work with all the various psychological issues that occur in schools.
