In Freaks, Geeks, and Cool Kids, Second Edition, award-winning
sociologist Murray Milner tries to understand why teenagers behave
the way they do. The first edition drew upon two years of intensive
fieldwork in one high school and 300 written interviews about high
schools across the country, where he argued that consumer culture
greatly impacts the way our youth relate to one another and
understand themselves and society. Milner now expands on that
concept with a new year of fieldwork fifteen years after he began.
He has uncovered in teens a move away from consumerism and towards
the cultural capital of information in a time of social media and
standardized tests.
