In The Anxious Generation, 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 competent, thriving adults. Haidt shows how the “play-based childhood” began to decline in the 1980s, and how it was finally wiped out by the arrival of the “phone-based childhood” in the early 2010s.

A must read
Revisado: 06-13-24
This book is an important examination of the impacts of social media on our mental health and the dangerous shift in the patterns of how generations of children are raised. It is incredibly thoroughly researched, well structured, and gives voice to concerns and criticisms that I think many people fell inside or discuss in small circles, about the outsized role that technology, specifically smartphones and social media, in our lives and the subtle but drastic impact it has on our lives.
It is ironic that I consumed this book listening while often multitasking, doing other things, and not focusing my attention on it alone, but let's just add that as another data point to the growing mountain of evidence of how the shape of our behavioral patterns have been changed by the constant availability of inputs via technology.

Great story, odd narration
Revisado: 10-02-22
An excellent tale set in Eberron, with enjoyable characters and action, and while the narrator takes the time to bring variety to the voices of the different characters the pace, pitch, and cadence of delivery just doesn't land for me. I warmed up to it after a bit, it was very jarring at the start, but it never felt right and relies on too many stereotypical portrayals (the villain has a deep brooding voice, the halfling is high pitched, the love interest is roguish and Irish sounding despite being an Artificer, etc.).
