Boys Adrift
Like many, I've been struck by the alarming trends in male development that I've seen not only in society, but also in myself.Well, I just heard pieces of a fascinating interview of Leonard Sax, Ph.D. on Coast to Coast AM about his new book Boys Adrift: The Five Factors Driving the Growing Epidemic of Unmotivated Boys and Underachieving Young Men.
In case you're wondering, the five factors are...
1. Video Games
2. Teaching Methods
3. Prescription Drugs
4. Endocrine Disruptors
5. Devaluation of Masculinity
If you're interested in this topic, read an introduction to the book here and find some interesting articles here.
