"Erudite, engaging, combative, crusading." - New York Times Book Review  "Words that chill the parental heart...  thanks to Mr. Haidt, we can glimpse the true horror of what happened not only in the U.S. but also elsewhere in the English-speaking world... lucid, memorable... galvanizing." - Wall Street Journal  "[An] important new book...The shift in kids' energy and attention from the physical world to the virtual one, Haidt shows, has been catastrophic, especially for girls." -Michelle Goldberg,    The New York Times   After more than a decade of stability or improvement, the mental health of adolescents plunged in the early 2010s. Rates of depression, anxiety, self-harm, and suicide rose sharply, more than doubling on many measures. Why? In  The Anxious Generation , social psychologist Jonathan Haidt lays out the facts about the epidemic of teen mental illness that hit many countries at the same time. He then investigates the nature of childhood, including why children need play and independent exploration to mature into competent, thriving adults. Haidt shows how the "play-based childhood" began to decline in the 1980s, and how it was finally wiped out by the arrival of the "phone-based childhood" in the early 2010s. He presents more than a dozen mechanisms by which this "great rewiring of childhood" has interfered with children's social and neurological development, covering everything from sleep deprivation to attention fragmentation, addiction, loneliness, social contagion, social comparison, and perfectionism. He explains why social media damages girls more than boys and why boys have been withdrawing from the real world into the virtual world, with disastrous consequences for themselves, their families, and their societies. Most important, Haidt issues a clear call to action. He diagnoses the "collective action problems" that trap us, and then proposes four simple rules that might set us free. He describes steps that parents, teachers, schools, tech companies, and governments can take to end the epidemic of mental illness and restore a more humane childhood. Haidt has spent his career speaking truth backed by data in the most difficult landscapes-communities polarized by politics and religion, campuses battling culture wars, and now the public health emergency faced by Gen Z. We cannot afford to ignore his findings about protecting our children-and ourselves-from the psychological damage of a phone-based life.]]></description><link>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C3373029</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C3373029</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Haidt, Jonathan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3373029133</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle>How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Is Causing An Epidemic of Mental Illness</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593655047/MC.GIF&amp;client=skopl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[How to Know A Person]]></title><description><![CDATA[Drawing from the fields of psychology and neuroscience and from the worlds of theater, philosophy, history and education, one of the nation's leading writers and commentators helps us become more understanding and considerate toward others, and to find the joy that comes from being seen.]]></description><link>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C3291776</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C3291776</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brooks, David]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3291776133</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Art of Seeing Others Deeply and Being Deeply Seen</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593230060/MC.GIF&amp;client=skopl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Think and Grow Rich]]></title><description><![CDATA[After interviewing more than five hundred of the most affluent men and women of his time, Napoleon Hill uncovered the secret to great wealth, based on the notion that if we can learn to think like the rich, we can discover wealth and success.

Veterans and their families deal with the painful aftermath of combat; one in five Americans has been molested; one in four grew up with alcoholics; one in three couples have engaged in physical violence. Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, one of the world's foremost experts on trauma, has spent over three decades working with survivors. In  The Body Keeps the Score , he uses recent scientific advances to show how trauma literally reshapes both body and brain, compromising sufferers' capacities for pleasure, engagement, self-control, and trust. He explores innovative treatments—from neurofeedback and meditation to sports, drama, and yoga—that offer new paths to recovery by activating the brain's natural neuroplasticity. Based on Dr. van der Kolk's own research and that of other leading specialists,  The Body Keeps the Score  exposes the tremendous power of our relationships both to hurt and to heal—and offers new hope for reclaiming lives.]]></description><link>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C2969135</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C2969135</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[van der Kolk, Bessel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2014 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2969135133</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle>Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781101608302/MC.GIF&amp;client=skopl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Will This Make You Happy]]></title><description><![CDATA["A hybrid memoir and cookbook about one transformative year of desire, indulgence, and dessert.

It was the end of life as she knew it. In the months that followed, she went from being a shiny, funny, popular leader, to a divorced wreck on antidepressants and anti-anxiety meds parenting five kids alone with no clue about her own bank accounts. Having led millions of women for over a decade-urging them to embrace authenticity, find radical agency, and create healthy relationships-this seemed nothing less than total failure. In Awake, Jen shares for the first time what happened when she found herself completely lost at sea-and how she made it to shore. In candid, surprisingly funny vignettes spanning forty years of girlhood, marriage, and parenting, Jen lays bare the disorienting upheaval of midlife-the implosion of a marriage, the unraveling of religious and cultural systems, and the grief that accompanies change you didn't ask for. And, drawing on all her resources-from without and from within-Jen dares to question the systems beneath the whole house of cards, and to reckon with the myths, half-truths, and lies that brought her to this point."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C3457954</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C3457954</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Hatmaker, Jen]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3457954133</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Memoir</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781668083680/MC.GIF&amp;client=skopl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Joyspan]]></title><description><![CDATA["Dr. Kerry shares her popular philosophy and tools in a comprehensive resource that moves readers from fear to peaceful confidence.

But just months into their relationship, her partner's leukemia returned--and what began as a love story quickly turned into something else entirely: without adequate systems for long-term care or meaningful support for disabled people, Laura found herself slipping from partner to unpaid caregiver, fighting to keep the woman she loved alive within a system built to let them both fall through the cracks. Now a sociologist and professor of disability studies, Dr. Mauldin turns her personal reckoning into a powerful, urgent investigation. Weaving together her own story with intimate interviews, fieldwork, and cutting-edge disability research, In Sickness and In Health exposes a quiet national emergency: the impossible expectations placed on spouses and intimate partners to provide round-the-clock care in the absence of public support. In these heartbreakingly vivid portraits of couples navigating love and loss in the context of disability and illness, Dr. Mauldin shows how deeply ableism is baked into our ideas of romance, desirability, and worth. She reveals how the state systematically offloads care onto private homes, disguising abandonment as devotion-and how the labor of keeping someone alive is rendered invisible when it's done out of love."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C3477501</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C3477501</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mauldin, Laura]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3477501133</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Love Stories From the Front Lines of America&apos;s Caregiving Crisis</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780063339132/MC.GIF&amp;client=skopl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Strange Case of Jane O]]></title><description><![CDATA["A woman born with perfect memory suddenly develops a series of eerie psychological symptoms--blackouts, hallucinations, premonitions, an inexplicable sense of dread. It is the first year after her child is born, and she and her untraditional psychiatrist struggle to solve the mystery of what is happening to Jane, to her mind. Then Jane suddenly goes missing and is found a day later lying unconscious in Brooklyn's Prospect Park, with no memory of her missing hours. A police detective becomes suspicious of Jane, and begins to track her, convinced that Jane is lying. What happened to Jane, and what do these peculiar experiences, including in something called a fugue state, have to do with a hallucination Jane has about a young man she knew twenty years ago, who warns her of a disaster ahead? The extraordinary mystery behind Jane's symptoms leads the forward-thinking young Dr. Byrd to reassess everything he thought he knew about Jane, the mind, psychology, and reality, including the events of his own life. This stunning novel is a provocative literary puzzle about memory, identity, consciousness, and the tender bonds of love between people, as well as a celebration of the gymnastic capabilities and the unexplained nature of the human mind."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C3425975</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C3425975</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Walker, Karen Thompson]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3425975133</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Novel</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781984853943/MC.GIF&amp;client=skopl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Girl, Interrupted]]></title><description><![CDATA[In 1967, after a session with a psychiatrist she'd never seen before, eighteen-year-old Susanna Kaysen was put in a taxi and sent to McLean Hospital. She spent most of the next two years in the ward for teenage girls in a psychiatric hospital as renowned for its famous clientele—Sylvia Plath, Robert Lowell, James Taylor, and Ray Charles—as for its progressive methods of treating those who could afford its sanctuary.Kaysen's memoir encompasses horror and razor-edged perception while providing vivid portraits of her fellow patients and their keepers. It is a brilliant evocation of a "parallel universe" set within the kaleidoscopically shifting landscape of the late sixties. Girl, Interrupted is a clear-sighted, unflinching document that gives lasting and specific dimension to our definitions of sane and insane, mental illness and recovery.]]></description><link>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C1977640</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C1977640</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kaysen, Susanna]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2013 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1977640133</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780804151115/MC.GIF&amp;client=skopl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[But What Will People Say?]]></title><description><![CDATA["A deeply personal, paradigm-shifting book from therapist, writer, and founder of @browngirltherapy that rethinks traditional therapy and self-care models, creating much-needed space for those left out of the narrative."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C3372833</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C3372833</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kohli, Sahaj Kaur]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3372833133</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Navigating Mental Health, Identity, Love, and Family Between Cultures</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593491195/MC.GIF&amp;client=skopl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sunny]]></title><description><![CDATA[Sunny, the Defenders' best runner, only runs for his father, who blames Sunny for his mother's death, but with his coach's help Sunny finds a way to combine track and field with his true passion, dancing.]]></description><link>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C2799576</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C2799576</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Reynolds, Jason]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2018 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2799576133</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781481450218/MC.GIF&amp;client=skopl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Things You Can See Only When You Slow Down]]></title><link>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C2663201</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C2663201</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Hyemin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2017 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2663201133</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>How to Be Calm and Mindful in A Fast-paced World</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780143130772/MC.GIF&amp;client=skopl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Things You Can See Only When You Slow Down]]></title><description><![CDATA["A renowned Buddhist meditation teacher, born in Korea and educated in the United States, illuminates a path to inner peace and balance amid the overwhelming demands of everyday life by offering guideposts to well-being and happiness in eight areas."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C2794616</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S133C2794616</guid><category><![CDATA[LPRINT]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Hyemin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2017 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://skokielibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2794616133</comments><format>LPRINT</format><subtitle>How to Be Calm and Mindful in A Fast-paced World</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781683245049/MC.GIF&amp;client=skopl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[We Have Always Lived in the Castle]]></title><description><![CDATA[Shirley Jackson's chilling masterpiece, We Have Always Lived in the Castle, is a haunting tale of isolation, suspicion, and dark family secrets.
