Nanette J. Davis, Ph.D. has
published extensively in her field.
Before completing "Blessed is She... Elder Care: Women's Stories of Choice, Challenge and Commitment", Nanette wrote Youth Crisis, which provides a comprehensive look at the social condition of youth in contemporary society. Nanette examines what is means to grow up today, and discusses in-depth childhood through the ages, schooling, gangs and the difficulties faced by homeless, addicted and minority youth. However, she does far more than offer a critique. She goes on to suggest ways that we might transform our culture, even our world, so that the youth of tomorrow will fare better than those of today.
Youth Crisis will change the way you view not only our youth, but the notion of justice as a whole. It's a must read for everyone who has or works with children of any age... parents, teachers, school administrators, law enforcement, legislators... or ultimately for anyone who cares about the plight of our most precious resource: our youth.
