Real Boys: Rescuing Our Sons from the Myths of Boyhood by Pollack, William - 1998

Westminster, Maryland, U.S.A.: Random House Inc, 1998. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Very good boards with pictorial dustwrapper. "Boys today are in crisis. On the surface, many boys may appear tough, confident, and cheerful, but underneath, many of them are sad, lonely, and confused. As the bestselling Reviving Ophelia took us into the worlds of girls, this groundbreaking book reveals the worlds of boys to show how society's mixed messages to boys put more of them at risk today than ever before. Boys' voices and experiences rise up from these pages as Dr. William Pollack of the Harvard Medical School draws on almost two decades of work with boys as well as on a recent study called "Listening to Boys' Voices" to present new findings about the true nature of boys and new insights into how to raise them to become happier, more confident, more successful men.".
