The Anxious Generation

Zusatztext

Social psychologist Jonathan Haidt lays out the facts about the epidemic of teen mental illness that hit many countries at the same time. He then investigates the nature of childhood, including why children need play and independent exploration to mature into thriving adults. Haidt shows how the "play-based childhood" began to decline in the 1980s, and how it vanished with the arrival of the "phone-based childhood" in the early 2010s.
