How do you make yourself an adult rather than just hoping it happens to you? Owning Yourself explores the ethical and moral issues that young people will need to address as adults in "the real world." It not only analyses the truths about being a decent human, it questions whether they "ring true"-do they lead to a richer, worthier human life? In learning that no one can legitimately objectify a human being, Owning Yourself guides us in owning our potential as humans and setting it in motion toward its richest kind of fulfillment.
