520    "From New York Times bestselling coauthor of The Coddling 
       of the American Mind, an essential investigation into the 
       collapse of youth mental health-and a plan for a healthier,
       freer childhood After more than a decade of stability or 
       improvement, the mental health of adolescents plunged in 
       the early 2010s. Rates of depression, anxiety, self-harm, 
       and suicide rose sharply, more than doubling on most 
       measures. Why? 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. He presents more than a dozen mechanisms by which 
       this "great rewiring of childhood" has interfered with 
       children's social and neurological development, covering 
       everything from sleep deprivation to attention 
       fragmentation, addiction, loneliness, social contagion, 
       social comparison, and perfectionism. He explains why 
       social media damages girls more than boys and why boys 
       have been withdrawing from the real world into the virtual
       world, with disastrous consequences for themselves, their 
       families, and their societies. Most important, Haidt 
       issues a clear call to action. He diagnoses the 
       "collective action problems" that trap us, and then 
       proposes four simple rules that might set us free. He 
       describes steps that parents, teachers, schools, tech 
       companies, and governments can take to end the epidemic of
       mental illness and restore a more humane childhood. Haidt 
       has spent his career speaking truth backed by data in the 
       most difficult landscapes-communities polarized by 
       politics and religion, campuses battling culture wars, and
       now the public health emergency faced by Gen Z. We cannot 
       afford to ignore his findings about protecting our 
       children-and ourselves-from the psychological damage of a 
       phone-based life"--|cProvided by publisher.
