Do you know what makes boys tick? In recent years suicide has dramatically escalated among young males and academic underachievement is common, so it is of vital importance that our understanding of the young male psyche is well informed and no merely 'received wisdom'. John Head gets to the heart - and mind of the matter, by tackling difficult, pertinent questions. Has male behavior in school worsened, or has media hype inflated the proportions of a 'good story'? What is at the root of male violence? Are biological or social explanations telling the whole story? Head shows that it is only by engaging boys in new arenas of thought and feeling that we can hope to understand and overcome the difficulties faced by boys today.
Essential reading for teachers, headteachers, researchers in education, gender, youth, community and social workers.
