Summary: A must for those working with adolescents.
Comment: Mike Males' books, The Scapegoat Generation, and Framing Youth, rank among the must-reads for any public health professional, community worker, or politician dealing with adolescents. Mike will help you see through all the myths and all the [stuff] that's out there regarding adolescents, much of it coming from what one would think are "unimpeachable" sources. If you're a health professional like me, wondering why all the "tried and true" strategies to reduce adolescent pregnancy, violence, drug use and smoking in your community are just not working, you need to read this book.

Rating: 5
Summary: Should Be Required Reading for Every American
Comment: Vincent Bugliosi has noted that if are an expert in any given field, you will notice that nothing the mainstream media reports about that field is accurate. Mike Males is an expert on youth, and he demonstrates convincingly that the media depiction of young people in America is flat out wrong.

Read this book, buy ten copies, give it to everyone you know-- especially to anyone who makes a casual crack about some youth problem (teen pregnancy, teen drinking.) They're wrong about it, and they're wrong about a lot of other things, too. This book will show them just how wrong they are.

Rating: 5
Summary: Excellent book.
Comment: A little wordy, but very detailed.

My copy of this book, like Mike Males other book "Framing Youth", is very worn out. They are like encyclopedias when it comes to youth issues in this country.

Well worth the read.
