This text confronts the complacent assumption that "boys will be
boys" which has resulted in a widespread blindness about the
problem of boys in school. It challenges the culture of aggressive
manliness within which most boys have grown up and the destructive
masculinity that they learn later in life. This challenging is done
by critically investigating the key social forces that shape boys -
insults, put-downs, sport and the making of masculine bodies and
militaristic culture. The book is a balance between theories on
boys and classroom practice. Each chapter has a thematic
introduction, a series of classroom strategies (including practical
suggestions for classroom use), and an "in the classroom" section
which includes a short account of working with boys on some of
these themes in an inner-city comprehensive school.
