The Anxious generation
In The Anxious Generation, Jonathan Haidt explores the rising crisis of anxiety, depression, and social struggles among today’s youth, linking it to the overuse of smartphones, social media, and a decline in real-world experiences. Backed by extensive research, Haidt reveals how these digital shifts have made young people more fragile, isolated, and overwhelmed, while also offering practical solutions for parents, educators, and society to help restore mental well-being. Eye-opening and essential, this book is a call to action for anyone concerned about the future of the next generation.
