Young men are struggling socially, sexually, and in school.
Why? In their provocative ebook 'The Demise of Guys: Why Boys Are
Struggling and What We Can Do About It,' celebrated
psychologist Philip G. Zimbardo and Nikita Duncan say that
an addiction to video games and online porn have created a
generation of shy, socially awkward, emotionally removed,
and risk-adverse young men who are unable (and unwilling) to
navigate the complexities and risks inherent to real-life
relationships, school, and employment. Taking a critical
look at a problem which is tearing at families and societies
everywhere, 'The Demise of Guys' suggests that our young men
are suffering from a new form of “arousal addiction,” and
introduce a bold new plan for getting them back on track.
The book is based on a popular TED Talk which Zimbardo did
in 2011, and includes extensive research as well as a
TED-exclusive survey that drew responses from more than
20,000 men.
