This shocking, lively exposure of the intellectual vacuity of today’s under thirty set reveals the disturbing and, ultimately, incontrovertible truth: cyberculture is turning us into a nation of know-nothings.
Can a nation continue to enjoy political and economic predominance if its citizens refuse to grow up?
For decades, concern has been brewing about the dumbed-down popular culture available to young people and the impact it has on their futures. At the dawn of the digital age, many believed they saw a hopeful answer: The Internet, e-mail, blogs, and interactive and hyper-realistic video games promised to yield a generation of sharper, more aware, and intellectually sophisticated children. The terms “information superhighway” and “knowledge economy” entered the lexicon, and we assumed that teens would use their knowledge and understanding of technology to set themselves apart as the vanguards of this new digital era.
That was the promise. But the enlightenment didn’t happen. The technology that was supposed to make young adults more astute, diversify their tastes, and improve their verbal skills has had the opposite effect. According to recent reports, most young people in the United States do not read literature, visit museums, or vote. They cannot explain basic scientific methods, recount basic American history, name their local political representatives, or locate Iraq or Israel on a map. The Dumbest Generation is a startling examination of the intellectual life of young adults and a timely warning of its consequences for American culture and democracy.
Drawing upon exhaustive research, personal anecdotes, and historical and social analysis, Mark Bauerline presents an uncompromisingly realistic portrait of the young American mind at this critical juncture, and lays out a compelling vision of how we might address its deficiencies.
Mark Bauerlein is a professor of English at Emory University and has worked as a director of Research and Analysis at the National Endowment for the Arts, where he oversaw studies about culture and American life.

評分同學早上給的..美國前浪噴後浪..看瞭幾個章節作罷瞭..作者太理想化瞭..雖然他說的很有道理瞭..不過全書還是先下結論+再補充數據論據的手法。社交網絡在我眼裏是個contrivance..絕大部分是假的幻想。年輕人腦子沒發育完整容易被忽悠.希特勒演講的時候有人還激動的暈過去瞭..精神消費品消費的全是human emotion吧...大多數刷fb自拍的孩子必然要淪為平庸的樣本點,否則誰來成就文體娛明星和花街職業收割機...讓美國小青年捧起經典大部頭曆史政治靜心閱讀=反人性..這大叔真是太不接地氣瞭。網絡容易造成一個幻象就是學習知識很容易但easy access不等於easy acquisition..刀工因人而異吧。醫院裏大概25左右青光眼好幾例30歲齣頭就飛蚊眼的挺多的。手機是個禍害!

評分這本書其實我看瞭有一陣子瞭,但我並沒有看完。如果圖書館沒有催還的話,我本是打算看完的。但結果,我隻看瞭一半的樣子,並毫不後悔的還瞭迴去。在看這本書之前,其實我期望甚高的,因為這本書的作者說過:其實,每個人的生活中,99%都對彆人沒有任何意義。因為這一句話,我開始看這一本書,但看瞭一半之後的感覺卻並不如我的期望。這更像是一篇及格但不優秀的議論文,有著清晰的論點、論據、論證,卻沒有閃光點。然後,也就是這樣瞭。
評分掃讀一過。1、太羅嗦。2、書是08年的,那年KINDLE剛齣來。沒有電子書部分。
《最愚蠢的一代》专门骂了目前电子网络时代的年青一代。书中说:他们愚蠢无知,对书籍、历史、文化、政治、艺术等毫不兴趣。他们只关心交际玩耍和其他同龄人都在干什么。他们认为成熟与知识、智慧无关,只与社会交际有关。他们不耐烦长时间的专注,习惯跳跃的扫描他们感兴趣的...
評分this author actually cite a lot of research indicating about the children read less but there is no way saying that as the interest moved from thick history book toward techonology is a stupid thing.
評分一本有趣的小书,虽然数据都来自美国,但是很多事实和特征适用各国于互联网一代,很容易找到样板。实际上,由互联网带来的弱龄化,以及一大批躲在二次元时间不愿出来的少年,又何止在美国。今天中国互联网人群衍生出的语境变化,对传统文化和严肃文学又多少影响我无从预知,不...
評分最近看电视,一则新闻,一则公益广告: 新闻说,加快实施“宽带中国”战略,带动电脑,网络,智能终端等信息产品消费,促进信息服务消费。这说明人们将越来越方便的享用与网络相关的高新技术,生活方式将越来越与网络、屏幕联系起来、人们面对”屏幕“的时间也将更多。 公益...
評分最近有看美国埃默里大学的英语教授马克—鲍尔英所写的一本得罪了美国8700万青少年的《愚蠢的一代》一书,颇有些感触。 迥异于“垮掉的一代”的代表作家杰克凯鲁亚克笔下的所谓的性格粗犷豪放、落拓不羁,生活简单、不修边幅,且喜穿奇装异服,厌弃工...
