They are a generation with sky-high expectations and a need for constant praise and fulfillment. Psychologist and social commentator Twenge documents the self-focus of what she calls "Generation Me"--people born in the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s--and explores why her generation is tolerant, confident, open-minded, and ambitious but also cynical, depressed, lonely, and anxious. Using findings from the largest intergenerational study ever conducted, Twenge reveals how profoundly different today's young adults are, and makes controversial predictions about what the future holds for them and society as a whole. But Dr. Twenge doesn't just talk statistics--she highlights real-life people and stories and vividly brings to life the hopes and dreams, disappointments and challenges of Generation Me.--From publisher description. 000310184 650_0 $$aYoung adults$$zUnited States. 000310184 650_0 $$aYouth$$zUnited States. 000310184 85200 $$bgen$$hHQ799.7$$i.T94$$i2006 000310184 85642 $$3Publisher description$$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0631/2005058514-d.html 000310184 85641 $$3Sample text$$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0664/2005058514-s.html 000310184 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:310184$$pGLOBAL_SET 000310184 980__ $$aBIB 000310184 980__ $$aBOOK 000310184 994__ $$aC0$$bISE
