The Boy Crisis: Why Our Boys Are Struggling and What We Can Do about It by Warren Farrell

3.0

A wonderful start to the book. Dr Warren Farrell has some important commentary on the state of things affecting boys and men that need to be shared. Often this side of the narrative is lost, particularly in the era of identity politics.

However the last section of the book covering ADHD was an enormous let down. The fact that Farrell was willing to work with John Gray has totally undermined the credibility of the whole book.

This section endorses pseudo science and quack medicine as a way of treating ADHD. Homoeopathy? Really?

Initially I wanted to tell everyone to read this book, now I’m embarrassed to have read it myself.
