'Should be read as a strident call to arms for a partially
disenfranchised generation that is burdened with debt.'The Times
'No parent can dismiss this argument about our collective failure
to invest in the future' The Guardian Why are so many adult
children living still living with mum and dad? Why do young people
seem so disinterested in politics? And what are the hidden threats
to Britain's long-term prosperity lurking in the next few decades?
First published in 2010, Ed Howker and Shiv Mailk's Jilted
Generation answers fundamental questions about the society you
thought you knew. It identified, for the first time, the perilous
position of Britain's young adults and, with a title brandished by
everyone from Ed Miliband to student protesters, the book's thesis
has formed a controversial but essential part of Britain's
political debate. With significant additional material, this
edition updates the argument and explains the real effects of
austerity policies and the recession. And, crucially, it explains
what must be done to protect a vital and underestimated national
asset - Britain's newest adults.
