Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Best Book of 2021 --Esquire? Featured on Good Morning America "A meticulous cartography of how outer forces shape young people's inner lives." --Esquire, Best Books of 2021  In conversation with young adults and experts alike, journalist Rainesford Stauffer explores how the incessant pursuit of a "best life" has put extraordinary pressure on young adults today, across our personal and professional lives--and how ordinary, meaningful experiences may instead be the foundation of a fulfilled and contented life. Young adulthood: the time of our lives when, theoretically, anything can happen, and the pressure is on to make sure everything does. Social media has long been the scapegoat for a generation of unhappy young people, but perhaps the forces working beneath us--wage stagnation, student debt, perfectionism, and inflated costs of living--have a larger, more detrimental impact on the world we post to our feeds.  An Ordinary Age puts young adults at the center as Rainesford Stauffer examines our obsessive need to live and post our #bestlife, and the culture that has defined that life on narrow, and often unattainable, terms. From the now required slate of (often unpaid) internships, to the loneliness epidemic, to the stress of "finding yourself" through school, work, and hobbies--the world is demanding more of young people these days than ever before. And worse, it's leaving little room for our generation to ask the big questions about who they want to be, and what makes a life feel meaningful. Perhaps we're losing sight of the things that fulfill us: strong relationships, real roots in a community, and the ability to question how we want our lives to look and feel, even when that's different from what we see on the 'Gram. Stauffer makes the case that many of our most formative young adult moments are the ordinary ones: finding our people and sticking with them, learning to care for ourselves on our own terms, and figuring out who we are when the other stuff--the GPAs, job titles, the filters--fall away. How do we build a meaningful life when the pressure for an extraordinary one is leaving a generation feeling anxious and alone? Perfectionism & Mental Health: An unflinching look at how the demand for perfection impacts young adult mental health, and how to find your worth when the GPAs, job titles, and filters fall away. The Loneliness Epidemic: A compassionate exploration of why this is called the "loneliest generation" and how finding your people--and sticking with them--is the true foundation of a contented life. Beyond Hustle Culture: A sharp analysis of dream jobs, unpaid internships, and hustle culture that asks what fulfillment looks like in the face of wage stagnation and student debt. Redefining Success: A powerful argument for ditching the #bestlife and embracing the ordinary, meaningful moments that truly define us.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. They were the self-made men of their time. Lincoln was born dirt poor, had less than 1 year of formal schooling and became the nation's greatest President. Douglass spent his first 20 years as a slave, had no formal schooling, couldn't read or write and became 1 of America's greatest writers and activists. At a time when most whites would not let a black man cross their threshold, Lincoln met Douglass 3 times at the White House and invited him to tea at the Soldier's Home. Their friendship was based on usefulness: Lincoln saw that he needed Douglass to help him destroy the Confederacy and preserve the Union; Douglass knew that Lincoln's shrewd sense of public opinion would serve his own goal of freeing the nation's blacks. Lincoln and Douglass moved beyond the traditional idea of character as fixed and based primarily on heredity and social status and embraced a self in a state of continual evolution. Award-winning historian John Stauffer describes the dramatic transformations in the lives of these giants during a major shift in cultural history, when men rejected the status quo and embraced new ideals of personal liberty.…

Abraham Lincoln was born dirt poor, had less than one year of formal schooling and became the nation's greatest President.
