Summary Mayim Bialik puts her Ph.D. to work to talk to teen boys about the science and pressures of growing up male in today's world. A must-have book for all teenage boys!
As an observant mother of two boys-- and with plenty of scientific information from her life as a neuroscientist-- Bialik talks directly to teen boys about what it means to grow from a boy to a man biologically, psychologically, and sociologically. She takes a look at what it means for boys to come of age in today's world, how can they take control of their paths, and what can they do to help shape the types of futures they want for themselves.
