The paperback edition of The New York Times bestselling book — “The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas Are Setting Up a Generation for Failure” — is out today!
Since its initial release last year, the book — written by FIRE President and CEO Greg Lukianoff and New York University professor Jonathan Haidt — spent multiple weeks on The New York Times’ bestseller list, was named one of the The New York Times’ 100 Notable Books of 2018, and received the Hugh M. Hefner Foundation’s 2019 First Amendment Award. The Financial Times, Inc. magazine, The London Evening Standard, and The New Statesman all chose “The Coddling of the American Mind” as one of their best books of the year, and it was named the most-read book on Bloomberg’s Best Books of 2018 list.
