How do boys see themselves? Their peers? The adult world? What are their aspirations and fears? 'Young masculinities' centres on a study in which boys talked openly about these questions and many others. It will be of interest to students and researchers in psychology, sociology, gender and youth studies, as well as policy makers and other professionals.
