A groundbreaking, revelatory portrait of the six generations that
currently live in the United States and how they connect, conflict,
and compete with one another-from the acclaimed author of
Generation Me and iGen. The United States is currently home to six
generations of people: -the Silents, born 1925-1945 -Baby Boomers,
born 1946-1964 -Gen X, born 1965-1979 -Millennials, born 1980-1994
-Gen Z, born 1995-2012 -and the still-to-be-named cohorts born
after 2012. 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? 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? With her
clear-eyed and insightful voice, Twenge explores what the Silents
and Boomers want out of the rest of their lives; how Gen X-ers are
facing middle age; the ideals of Millennials as parents and in the
workplace; and how Gen Z has been changed by COVID, among other
fascinating topics. Surprising, engaging, and informative,
Generations will forever change the way you view your parents,
peers, coworkers, and children, no matter which generation you call
your own.
