Resumen del Editor

A groundbreaking, “lavishly informative” (The New York Times) 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.

Upending the conventional theory that generational differences are caused by major events, Dr. Jean Twenge analyzes data on 39 million people from robust national surveys—some going back nearly a century—to show that changes in technology are the underlying driver of each generation’s unique makeup. In this revelatory work, Twenge outlines key shifts in attitudes and lifestyle choices that define each generation regarding gender, income, politics, race, sexuality, marriage, mental health, and much more.

Surprising, engaging, and informative, Generations “gets you thinking about how appreciating generational differences can, ironically, bring us together” (Angela Duckworth, New York Times bestselling author). It will forever change the way you view your parents, peers, coworkers, and children, no matter which generation you call your own.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

a better understanding of generations of Americans that must learn to live with each other.

I found this book very interesting. Many of the concepts that were discussed were not foreign to me, having come from a generation that remembers rotary dial, telephones and getting do use primarily from paper and to this day, I have transferred into the area of understanding and reading Alba iPhone. I remember as a child, vacuum tubes and big cathode ray tubes in the TVs and I remember going to my father going with my father to Walgreens to select a YouTube of one that looked burned out. I remember vacuum tubes for radios and televisions, and never understood how they went from vacuum tubes to solid-state transistorized Radios in any case I’ve had the privilege of living during all these developments from Roy to reset from rotary phones to pocket cell phone to wrist watch phone. And today due to my severe arthritis I cannot type using a keyboard I must dictate my thoughts into an iPhone this opens up to a risk of typos or mixed words that bring a flavor of that what I meant on my communications. Thank you for this presentation. I understand my children. I understand my parents, where they came from, and how one sees the world to my hope that the reverse is true with my parents, grandparents, sons, and grandchildren. We are all in it together.

Essential to Understanding America's Generation s

Although every generation has its differences, they also have some remarkable similarities. Social and economical changes as well as political and technological pressures move society forward. How each generation responds will shape its future along with those who follow.

It’s interesting…

I bought this because I truly wanted to understand generations before me and how the future is looking. I know there’s a much larger picture than the one my social networks echo chamber discusses. Some of the facts seem really skewed. I’d be interested in looking at the sources. I also feel like the data for millennials and income is biased, like did it all come from Midwest residents who own homes? Because for those living in major metropolitan areas, the income may appear higher, but cost of living is 40-60% of an individual’s income. More so for me personally, a college grad, earning 20.00/hr in human services, and paying 2400/mo in rent…. Which was a steal.

Anyway, part of my job requires I stay apprised of COL data compared to the average income and the math in this book just isn’t mathing.

The way GenX and Millennials are talked about still perpetuates that negative tone and I was hoping for more factual, less disparaging.

I am feeling underwhelmed, I guess.

Excellent, superbly researched, strong recommend

I picked this book because it’s a strong research which underpins Dr Twenge’s work and to understand the dynamics in my workplace, and in my family. I feel more informed and more empowered by the information, data, and stories to illustrate the facts. I will be recommending this book strongly to human resource professionals, recruiters, educators, parents, and leaders of all kinds in religion, politics, business, nonprofits, government, and education.

Food for Thought

Good to know a new and different perspective on how each generation's growth and development has in fact shaped the world. One cannot be the same if past generation doesn't affect how we live today and the tremendous contributions that can be made for the future.

Superbly organized and written!

Author Jean M. Twenge PhD utilizes the results of many surveys and studies which include over 39 million people to write this blockbuster book about the generations of US citizens beginning with the Silent Generation (1925 - 1945) the youngest of whom are 77 years old to the Alphas (2013 -2023) the oldest of whom are 10 years old. The audio book is 17 hours long and is supported by a 284 page PDF supplemental of charts and graphs. Realistically, absorbing the information requires a minimum of 50 hours. Generations is superbly organized and written. It is easily the best treatment of the topic available. Ideally Generations is a textbook for a one semester graduate level course.

Whether one wants a deep dive into the information included in Generations or simply to skim the topics for hundreds of interesting facts this book is ideal. It has my highest recommendation.
