Failing Boys:

Society’s Destructive Neglect for the Emergency in our Schools and How We Can Respond to the Calamity Facing Young Males

Featuring Dr. James S. Brown, author, educator and equality consultant.

Description

From educational achievement to career expectations, boys face a bleak future. All trend lines point to the failings of today’s cohort of boys. Whatever the causes, the impending floundering of  boys and young men will prove disastrous to society. That’s the bad news. The good news is that we are coming to better appreciate why this crises has hit, and can now begin to provide solutions teachers, educators and parents can do to improve the situation for young boys. The benefits and rewards will come to all of us. Featuring Dr. James S. Brown, author, educator and equality consultant.
