Download Generation Me: Why Today's Young Americans Are More Confident, Assertive, Entitled - and More Miserable Than Ever Before AudioBook Free
In this provocative new booklet, psychologist and social commentator Dr. Jean Twenge documents the self-focus of what she phone calls "Technology Me" - people blessed in the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s. Dr. Twenge explores why her technology is tolerant, self-confident, open-minded, and ambitious but also cynical, frustrated, lonely, and stressed. Dr. Twenge reveals how profoundly different today's young adults are - and makes controversial predictions about what the future keeps to them and society all together. But Dr. Twenge doesn't just talk figures - she shows real-life people and reviews. With a great deal of irony, humor, and sympathy, she shows that today's young people have been elevated to aim for the stars at the same time when it's more difficult than ever before to get into school, find a good job, and manage a residence. Dr. Twenge also presents the often-shocking truths about her generation's drastically different sexual action and mores. Engaging, controversial, prescriptive, and frequently funny, Technology Me will give boomers new perception to their offspring and help GenMe'ers in their teens, 20s, and 30s finally make sense of themselves and their goals and discover their highway to happiness.
