Acerca de este título

From NYU professor of developmental psychology Niobe Way, an in-depth exploration about what boys and young men teach us about themselves, us, and the toxic culture we have created, one in which we value money over people, toys over human connection, and academic achievement over kindness. Based on her longitudinal and mixed-method research over thirty-five years, Rebels with a Cause is a true call to action to change the culture so that we stop the vicious cycle of violence and blame.

Dr. Niobe Way has spent her career researching social and emotional development and finds that boys and young men desperately want and need the same thing as everyone else: close friendships. Yet they and we grow up in a stereotyped “boy” culture, one that devalues and mocks those relationships, rather than recognizing that they’re necessary for human survival.

In Rebels with a Cause, Way takes her message one step beyond her previous book, Deep Secrets, which was the inspiration for an Oscar-nominated film Close, to reveal how these “rebels,” as she calls the boys and young men in her research and in her classrooms, teach us about their and our crisis of connection, evidence of which is visible in our soaring rates of depression, anxiety, loneliness, suicide, and mass violence. They also teach us about the solutions to the crisis, which is to care, to listen with curiosity, and to take individual and collective responsibility for the damage we have done to them, to ourselves, and to the world around us.

Way provides us not only with data-driven insight into the roots and consequences of this crisis of connection, but also offers us concrete and empirically tested strategies for creating a culture that better aligns with our human nature and our human needs. Her book reminds us that “it’s not the rebels who cause the troubles of the world, it’s the troubles that cause the rebels.” The time to listen to and act on what young rebels have been telling us for almost a century is now.

Reseñas de la crítica

“Insightful… fascinating, particularly her extensive interviews with boys of color… much food for thought.” —Publishers Weekly

"A thoughtful, well-informed look at contemporary boy culture and its many inherent problems." —Kikus

"Rebels With a Cause
is a key intervention - as a developmental psychologist of immense experience, Niobe Way is uniquely positioned to unravel the very notions of (masculine) development that bind our society as a whole into structures of violence, exclusion, and isolation; in the often painful testimony of boys and teenagers, she also finds a compass to show us the way home." —David Wengrow, New York Times bestselling author of The Dawn of Everything: A New History of Humanity

"Reading Niobe Way’s epic new book is one of those experiences that forever changes your understanding of the world you live in. In the mirror it holds up to society and ourselves, we see an urgent, dire need for greater connection, care, and most of all curiosity. The implications of her research create possibilities for dramatic transformation of how we live and how we raise and educate generations to come. Way combines rigorous reserach with compelling personal stories with inspiring examples of trajectory-changing projects and programs. This is a must-read for anyone who cares about our children, our society, and our future." —Jeff Wetzler, author of Ask: Tap Into the Hidden Wisdom of People Around You

"This is a book for everyone invested in education and children---meaning everyone who cares about the future." —Carol Gilligan, author of In a Human Voice

"Rebels with a Cause
may just be the book we need to save America from itself. —Lisa Arrastia, founding director of The Ed Factory and Associate Professor of Education, Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts

“Through brilliant storytelling that includes personal and professional narratives, Professor Way presents a four-part narrative that sets the foundation for understanding the foundations of some of today’s biggest challenges to offering solutions to these challenges.” —Michael Cunningham, Professor of Psychology & Africana Studies and Associate Provost for Graduate Studies and Research at Tulane University

"Rebels with a Cause is magnificent! Full of thick stories and deep insights -- all brilliantly expressed! Way builds beautifully on Carol Gilligan's work to reveal profound truths about the human condition and highlight a path forward that bypasses moral injury and leads to the meaningful connections we need -- individually and collectively -- to heal and thrive." —Judy Chu, author of When Boys Become Boys
