A portrait of the six generations that currently live in the United States and how they connect, conflict, and compete with one another.
What The Reviewers Say
One senses, picking up Twenge’s tome — 515 pages before you get to the appendix — an attempt to quell past criticisms.
By holistically studying how these events and advancements affected each generation’s attitudes and traits, Twenge provides a glimpse into the future.
Twenge paints a well-rounded portrait of each generation and makes a convincing argument that technological advancements have led to 'accelerating individualism' and a slowdown in the 'developmental trajectory' of younger Americans. It’s an informative and insightful study of the dynamics at play in U.S. society today..
