摘要

This single volume reference work focuses on selected events and individuals that defined a generation of Americans. The Baby Boomer generation refers to the children born between 1946 and 1964. These were considered the post-Second World War years when there was an increase in the birth rate following the return of servicemen. During this period there were approximately 76 million children born in the USA. Due to the force of their numbers, Baby Boomers had a significant impact on American society, culture, and politics. Martin Gitlin, a freelance book writer and journalist, presents selected social, political, and historical events that impacted Baby Boomers from 1946 to the present day. The entries represent individuals, topics, and events that influenced them as well as illustrate their impact on American society. In his introduction, Gitlin discusses the circumstances that made this generation different from the one before it and any since. Therefore, the book includes some of the events in their childhood and young adult years that played a role in their outlooks and actions.
