"Paints an optimistic portrait of a much misunderstood generation that has never known a world without the internet." —Observer

Born since the mid-1990s, members of Generation Z comprise the first generation never to know the world without the internet. As Gen Z starts to emerge into adulthood and enter the workforce, what do we really know about them? And what can we learn from them?

Gen Z, Explained is the authoritative portrait of this significant generation. It draws on extensive interviews that display this generation's candor, surveys that explore their views and attitudes, and a vast database of their astonishingly inventive lexicon to build a comprehensive picture of their values, daily lives, and outlook.

Much of the existing literature about Gen Z has been highly judgmental. In contrast, this book provides a deep and nuanced understanding of a generation facing a future of enormous challenges, from climate change to civil unrest. What's more, they are facing this future head-on, relying on themselves and their peers to work collaboratively to solve these problems. As Gen Z, Explained shows, this group of young people is as compassionate and imaginative as any that has come before, and understanding the way they tackle problems may enable us to envision new kinds of solutions.

This portrait of Gen Z is ultimately an optimistic one, suggesting they have something to teach all of us about how to live and thrive in this digital world.

"An intimate and indispensable guide to the identities and belonging of postmillennials—and some surprising lessons for all of us." —Richard A. Settersten, Jr., author of Living on the Edge: An American Generation's Journey Through the Twentieth Century
