A New Book From Michael Gurian
"The Purpose of Boys: Helping Our Sons Find Meaning, Significance, and Direction in Their Lives"

THE PURPOSE OF BOYS is the final volume in Michael Gurian's trilogy on boys development. In this book, Gurian presents a tool kit for parents who want to discover how to inspire the ultimate fulfillment of their son’s life. As he explains, “purpose” is vital for the success and happiness of every boy.
THE PURPOSE OF BOYS outlines a map parents can use to help their own sons wrestle with everyday life events and growth. And the book serves as a model to help all our sons seek a successful future, while still boys, adolescents, and young men.

The newest education book from the Gurian Institute is an essential resource for schools and districts who want to pilot single-gender classes, and for teachers working in public or private schools with single-sex programs. The book provides important information about gender-based brain science and practical, effective strategies for single-sex classrooms and schools. This workbook is the third in the series, which began with two workbooks for teachers of co-ed classrooms, titled Strategies for Teaching Boys & Girls: Elementary Level and Secondary Level.
