This is the first book to examine the psyche of the Jamaican man from the aspect of Masculine Gender Role Stress. Before this work, the concept of Masculine Gender Role Stress has never before been employed to analyse the behaviour and thinking of the Jamaican man. The author conducted detailed research which showed that many Jamaican men were undergoing high rates of Masculine Gender Role Stress. The uniqueness of this book concerns the fact that finally an explanation has been put forward to account for behavoiurs that are often talked about, but never studied from a perspective that yielded valuable explanations.

Children and youth occupy important social and political roles, even as they sleep in cribs or hang out on street corners. Conceptualized as either harbingers or saboteurs of a bright, secure tomorrow, they have motivated many adult-driven schemes to effect a positive future. But have all children benefited from these programs and initiatives? Lost Kids examines adults' misgivings about, and the inadequate care of, vulnerable children. From explorations of interracial adoption and the treatment of children with disabilities to discussions of the cultural construction of the hopeless child, this multifaceted collection rejects the essentialism of the "priceless child" or "lost youth" � simplistic categories that continue to shape the treatment of those who deviate from the so-called norm.
