My Generation: Fifty Years of Sex, Drugs, Rock, Revolution, Glamour, Greed, Valor, Faith, and Silicon Chips

by Michael Gross

Overview

The Baby Boom generation is not what you think. It's Donald Trump as well as druggies, Born-again Christians as well rock'n'rollers, right-wingers and nerds as well as hippies and freaks. This "thought-provoking" (Kirkus), "mesmerizing" (Tama Janowitz), "wide-ranging" (Red Herring), "unsettling" (Denver Post) collective biography redefines Baby Boom generation -- and takes a fresh and refreshing look at the social history of the last sixty years by focusing on nineteen quintessential boomers -- from an LSD chemist to a software pioneer, from a Weatherman bomber to a billionaire builder, from an anti-war cartoonist to an ultraconservative congressman, from a rockstar's girlfriend to a hip-hop impresario -- and their wild ride into the twenty-first century.
