iGen: The 10 Trends Shaping Today's Young People - and the Nation by Jean M. Twenge | Book Summary | Abbey Beathan
(Disclaimer: This is NOT the original book.)
For society to keep evolving at a fast pace, older generations need an in-depth understanding of the latest generation, also known as the "iGen".
If you were born between the mid 90's to the mid 2000's or later, you're part of the iGen. The generation that lived their entire teenage years surrounded by smartphones, social media and a technology growing at a faster pace than ever. With the greatest generation divide presented so far, the iGen is completely different from their predecessors. Different philosophy, different attitudes toward sex and religion, and even a different way of spending time with their loved ones. How good they turn out to be is not only determined by their individual skills, but also by the degree of understanding that their predecessors have of them and how well they can engage with the newer generation.

"iGen is on the verge of the most severe mental health crisis for young people in decades. On the surface, though, everything is fine." – Jean M. Twenge

Even if you are part of the iGen, it's not necessary that you completely understand the nature of your peers due to its complexity but Jean M. Twenge walks us through this vast topic explaining all we need to know to comprehend our surroundings.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5
If you are reading this review, according to the cornucopia of research offered in this book, you are unlikely to be an iGen’er. “By 2015, one out of three high school seniors admitted they had not read any books for pleasure in the past year, three times as many as in 1976.” - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The book cover points to the root of the problem. It's the smartphones! Our kids need us all to know this and help them make important changes NOW.
