Abstract
The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt examines the intersection of children's technology use and health, notably anxiety and depression. Haidt presents a broad range of the research and dives deeply into the findings to underpin his arguments. He seamlessly integrates data throughout the book, drawing clear connections between the rise of digital technology and the increase in adolescent anxiety and depression. In addition to discussing the issues with technology, Haidt also offers solutions. His engaging approach to explaining the data and issues make this book an enjoyable and practical read.
