Présentation de l'éditeur
The best excuse for this book is probably the fact that its publication is requested by the International Committee of theY oung Men sC hristian A ssociations. It is given to the press, not as the last word on the boy problem, but simply to add another handbook to the working library of boy lovers and boy leaders, with such suggestiveness as it may offer them for their own better counsel. In its original form the manuscript was prepared as a course of lectures on the assigned subject The Principles of SelfG overnment A mongO lder Boys. These lectures were given in A ugust, 1909, at the annual Y. M. C. A. Institute atS ilver Bay, Lake Greorge, New York, before the advanced Boys Work and County Work Secretaries. The closing chapters on The Boy sR eligion and The Boy sH ome have been added at the request of the International Committee. Acknowledgments are due theS unday School Times Co.

Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the complex and often contradictory nature of boyhood, arguing that boys are simultaneously products of their current environment and the long evolutionary history of humanity. The author, a YMCA leader, draws on his extensive experience with boys to provide a nuanced understanding of their physical, emotional, and social development. He suggests that the "problem" of boyhood is largely due to the clash between the natural impulses of boys and the expectations of society. The book delves into the culture epochs theory, which posits that children recapitulate the stages of human evolution in their own development. This theory provides a framework for understanding the instinctive behaviors and thought patterns of boys. The author also examines the role of self-government in fostering boys' independence and leadership skills. Ultimately, the book argues that the key to unlocking the potential of boys lies in recognizing and nurturing their innate strengths. By providing boys with the freedom to explore their interests, take risks, and learn from their mistakes, we can help them grow into confident, responsible, and compassionate young men. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330075432_0
