Uncover the roots of today's campus crises and the challenges facing a generation in "The Coddling of the American Mind." This insightful work explores three "Great Untruths" that, despite good intentions, are setting up young people for failure: the belief that what doesn't kill you makes you weaker, the idea that you should always trust your feelings, and the notion that life is a battle between good and evil people.
Discover how to grasp the core insights in just 15 minutes. This audio distills the essential lessons from the original book, cutting out the fluff and saving you hours. Learn how trends like paranoid parenting, the decline of free play, and the rise of "safetyism" have contributed to an increase in anxiety and a decrease in resilience among young Americans. Understand the impact on free inquiry and mental well-being, and explore potential solutions for fostering stronger, more independent thinkers. If you’ve read the book before, it’s a great way to reinforce what matters most.
