Jonathan Haidt’s new book The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness has been released today—and so has part one of my review!

Haidt’s pragmatic call for action—the removal of cellphones from the classroom and the incentivizing of embodied, social play in childhood—are realistic and achievable goals to help the up and coming generation get their sensoriums back into proportion. I’d recommend this book and, more so, recommend the rallying for the changes at the parental and local level which he advocates for.
