The book is choppy and I think it is not always honest about its process to handle sources so in some discussions I felt unconvinced that due diligence had been followed.

In other sections the sources are the core considerations and the analisys is very interesting and convincing.

Need to read whole thing and apply some grains of salt at some points.

Dr. Twenge considers what survey and census data tell us about the similarities and differences between generations from, roughly, the 1940s to the present. There are some surprises. Worth reading to understand one another.

I am not big on this non-fiction exploration of how kids younger than Millennials are different from kids of other generation. There was some interesting statistics and graphs, but it is written in a boring manner with not as much substance as I had expected.
