By Rajasingam Jeyendran PhD
No matter how you look at it, the teenage years are awkward times. Strange things happen to boys' bodies. Their minds wander off to think about sex more than before. They think they're ready for sex, but aren't really sure. While nobody has all the answers, this book is an excellent tool for detailing everything about puberty, sex, and maturation. With practical advice and easy-to-understand explanations, this book helps parents and sons through the potentially embarrassing journey of growing up. Presented in an easy "Question & Answer" format, the text covers everything from physical changes during puberty to the "birds and bees" of sex. The light-hearted writing and cartoons paired with technical details make this otherwise touchy subject easy to digest and understand. Co-written by an internationally recognized andrologist and by a high school educator, this book shares medical and personal knowledge to inquiring young boys and their anxious parents.

If you are a male approaching adulthood, you might be wondering: Are you a boy or a man? You might even hear the question coming from parents, mentors, your boss or girlfriend. Asking the question is not a bad thing; it could push you to envision your potential and become a better person. Perhaps you are a teacher, parent or counselor struggling to help someone determine what stage they are at in life.

Delve into issues such as trust, truth and pride. You’ll examine what it means to be an adult in ways you never did before. It’s also important to understand the myths that revolve around manhood.

Find out the key differences between being a child and an adult, and determine whether or not you or someone you know is ready to make the leap in The Difference Between a Boy and a Man.

By Matt Kern
From the beginning of the seventh to the end of the eighth grade Matt went from being an A student to flunking out. While repeating the eighth grade, he was the MVP in three sports and was stealing cars on weekends. One night in April, 1988, he and two friends went out to steal a car. One of the friends shot and killed the driver. Trying to avoid a mandatory 25 years in prison, Matt accepted a plea of 60 years because he hoped he could reduce time served from 30 years to 12. Most young males are victimized by the dominant inmates in prison. At DeSoto Correctional Institute he was the youngest male among 1,100 men. Unbeknownst to his parents, Matt thrived in prison. He made and sold wine and loansharked, among other things. With his profits he bank-rolled a gambling operation. At one point he was sending money home to his brother. He paid one inmate to iron his clothes and another one to make his bed. But in his 6th year of incarceration he hit a man with a pipe in the middle of the night. He was sent to Close Management or "Solitary," for 13 months. For the first time he had experienced guilt for something he had done. It was the beginning of a spiritual awakening. The details of the crime and of his life leading up to it, the details of Matt's "business interests" while in prison, a love affair with an attractive female guard, the details of the fight mentioned above and the providential way in which Matt got clemency from Governor Chiles four months before he died of a heart attack, is all part of a riveting story.

Young Black males from their teens to their thirties have a difficult time in American society. Without a nurturing and protective culture or code of behavior they are lost. Black males don't seek conflict, they seek security. But nothing prevents them from being locked in an unending, inhumane struggle for survival. Shaasha Barta gives back a key that was lost during slavery: a code of honor and conduct that existed in the time of the great African empires; the key necessary for the restoration of dignity, honor and stability.
