Boys, girls, and the myths of literacies and learning

"This timely and authoritative book deconstructs the myths that serve to uphold the "moral panic" about boys' chances of success in school and after graduation, and provides critical analysis of existing approaches. The objective of the collection is threefold: to call into question the essentializing of gender and of literacy; to suggest a deep examination of school practices in general; to question who is served well and whose needs are ignored."--Jacket.
