Download Slackonomics: Generation X in the Age of Creative Destruction AudioBook Free
Technology X was raised in the 1980s, when Alex P. Keaton would be considered a millionaire by enough time he was thirty, greed was good, and interpersonal activism was deader than disco. Then globalization and the scientific revolution arrived, changing everything for a era faced with bridging the analog and digital worlds. Living in a time of “creative destruction” – when an old monetary order is upended by a fresh one – has deeply damaged everyday life because of this generation; from the way they work, where they live, the way they play, when they marry and have children to their attitudes about love, humor, joy, and personal fulfillment. Through the sharp and amusing mix of pop and alt-culture, personal narrative, and monetary analysis, creator Lisa Chamberlain shows how Technology X has survived and even thrived in the time of creative destruction, but will now be faced with solving monetary and environmental problems on a worldwide range.
