I’ve just finished reading Jonathan Haidt’s bestselling new book THE ANXIOUS GENERATION. I think it may be the most important nonfiction book of the decade, and today I want to tell you why. 🧵

How beautiful is this? A bookshop owner in Southampton has asked for help as he moves his stock due to high rent and wants to move the books to the new location. The old owner was surprised by the sight of more than 250 young people, elderly, and people with special needs who
