Jonathan Haidt argues that the widespread adoption of smartphones and social media has fundamentally altered childhood, leading to a dramatic increase in youth mental illness. He details how the loss of unsupervised play, the constant pressure of online social comparison, and the decline of in-person interaction are contributing to a generation experiencing unprecedented levels of anxiety and depression. The book explores the societal shifts that enabled this "great rewiring" and proposes a return to more traditional childhood experiences to foster resilience and well-being.
Robert Greene
Le pouvoir… on le désire, on le craint, on s’en protège… « Le sentiment de n’avoir aucun pouvoir sur les gens et les événements est difficilement supportable : l’impuissance rend malheureux. Personne ne réclame moins de pouvoir, tout le monde en veut davantage. » Amoral, intelligent, impitoyable et captivant, cet ouvrage colossal condense 3 000 ans d’histoire du pouvoir en 48 lois. Véritable manuel de la manipulation, il analyse la quintessence de cette sagesse millénaire, tirée de la vie des plus illustres stratèges (Sun Zi, Clausewitz), hommes d’État (Louis XIV, Bismarck, Talleyrand), courtisans (Castiglione, Gracián), séducteurs (Ninon de Lenclos, Casanova) et escrocs de l’histoire. Certaines lois reposent sur la prudence (loi no 1 : Ne surpassez jamais le maître), d’autres demandent de la dissimulation (loi no 7 : Laissez le travail aux autres, mais recueillez-en les lauriers), d’autres encore une absence totale de compassion (loi no 15 : Écrasez complètement l’ennemi). Toutes ces lois trouveront des applications dans votre vie de tous les jours… Car, soyez en certain : le monde est une immense cour où se trament toutes sortes d’intrigues. Au lieu de nier l’évidence, tâchez d’exceller dans la course au pouvoir. Des extraits, des vidéos, des interviews de Robert Greene sur son site www.robertgreene.fr
