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the whole thing is about why Facebook and Twitter are pieces of shit
評分1. 書麵語的詞匯量比一般口語要大得多;2. 有效的輸入纔能有價值地輸齣;3. 娛樂至死;4. 瞭解前人的曆史與思想,纔能看得更遠;5. 快速閱讀不等於有效閱讀;6. 互聯網對學習新知識的幫助,並不如預想中大,甚至是一種阻礙(注意力分散)
評分you just cannot trust him too much
評分非常好的一本書,值得所有大學生一看。
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《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...
評分在马克·鲍尔莱恩笔下的最愚蠢的一代,初听之时似乎骇人听闻。作者在著述中通篇贯穿着一个悖论,即在信息化时代,面对迅捷的信息,丰富的资源,在数字环境中成长的一代为什么不但没有出现预期中的智力增长,反而在读写能力、人文素养、公民意识等方面呈现着倒退的迹象。 ...
評分 評分这位作者查不到信息,只显示美国大学教授。整本书就一个印象:咋呼。 作者潜意识认为,只有在书店、图书馆之类的地方购买、借阅图书,通过阅读书籍才能获得深入的知识。所以,现在年轻人通过数字化渠道、影音传媒获得的知识都是笑话,造就“最愚蠢的一代”。 拍脑袋的思路。很...
