The War Against Boys

Boys are languishing socially and academically. With each passing year, their plight only worsens. The social and economic costs of male underachievement and disengagement are staggering. How did we get here and what can be done?

Her articles have appeared in publications such as The Journal of Philosophy, The New England Journal of Medicine, The New York Times, and The Atlantic.

Dr. Sommers is the editor of Vice and Virtue in Everyday Life, a textbook on moral philosophy.
