Generations

(4 customer reviews)

Professor of psychology and “reigning expert on generational change” (Lisa Wade, PhD, author of American Hookup), Jean Twenge does a deep dive into a treasure trove of long-running, government-funded surveys and databases to answer these questions. Are we truly defined by major historical events, such as the Great Depression for the Silents and September 11 for Millennials? Or, as Twenge argues, is it the rapid evolution of technology that differentiates the generations?

Description

They have had vastly different life experiences and thus, one assumes, they must have vastly diverging beliefs and behaviors. But what are those differences, what causes them, and how deep do they actually run?

    While the writing is competent, the story lacked depth and failed to fully engage me. The characters felt one-dimensional, and the plot was predictable. It’s an okay read but not particularly memorable.

  2. Daniel (verified owner)

    This book was a serious disappointment. The writing was unimpressive, and I couldn’t connect with the characters. The story felt aimless and left me with a sense of frustration. I wouldn’t recommend it.

    A true masterpiece! The author’s writing is nothing short of exceptional. The characters are well-developed, and the story is emotionally gripping from start to finish. This book is a must-read for anyone who appreciates superb storytelling.

    I was completely captivated by this book. The author’s prose is poetic, and the story’s twists and turns are masterfully executed. It’s a true page-turner that lingers in your thoughts long after you finish it.
