This revision of an important and path-breaking work holds to its central argument that troubled young people can develop self-worth, significance, dignity, and responsibility only through commitment to the positive values of helping and caring for others. The authors contend that the young people who populate our nation�s schools are in desperate need of an antidote to the narcissism, malaise, and antisocial lifestyles that have become so prevalent, and that this book seeks to provide a way of meeting their increasing cry to be used in some demanding cause.
