Generations
Generations has been hailed as a profound, though somewhat disconcerting, evaluation of where America is headed by national leaders as different as former Vice President Al Gore and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich.
William Strauss and Neil Howe argue that America's history may be seen as a series of generational biographies, beginning in 1584 and continuing through today's children. Their bold hypothesis is that each generation belongs to one of four categories, which repeat in a predictable rhythm. From the founding colonies to the present day and long into this millennium, the vision of Generations permits us to map a recurrent cycle in American history — a cycle of spiritual awakenings and secular crises.
Generations is an exciting intuitive leap that reorders not just our history books, but also our aspirations for the twenty-first century.
