　　In The Greatest Generation, his landmark bestseller, Tom

Brokaw eloquently evoked for America what it meant to come of age

during the Great Depression and the Second World War. Now, in

Boom!, one of America’s premier journalists gives us an epic

portrait of another defining era in America as he brings to life

the tumultuous Sixties, a fault line in American history. The

voices and stories of both famous people and ordinary citizens come

together as Brokaw takes us on a memorable journey through a

remarkable time, exploring how individual lives and the national

mindset were affected by a controversial era and showing how the

aftershocks of the Sixties continue to resound in our lives today.

In the reflections of a generation, Brokaw also discovers lessons

that might guide us in the years ahead.

Boom! One minute it was Ike and the man in the grey flannel suit,

and the next minute it was time to “turn on, tune in, drop out.”

While Americans were walking on the moon, Americans were dying in

Vietnam. Nothing was beyond question, and there were far fewer

answers than before.

Published as the fortieth anniversary of 1968 approaches, Boom!

gives us what Brokaw sees as a virtual reunion of some members of

“the class of ’68,” offering wise and moving reflections and frank

personal remembrances about people’s lives during a time of high

ideals and profound social, political, and individual change. What

were the gains, what were the losses? Who were the winners, who

were the losers? As they look back decades later, what do members

of the Sixties generation think really mattered in that tumultuous

time, and what will have meaning going forward?

Race, war, politics, feminism, popular culture, and music are all

explored here, and we learn from a wide range of people about their

lives. Tom Brokaw explores how members of this generation have gone

on to bring activism and a Sixties mindset into individual

entrepreneurship today. We hear stories of how this formative

decade has led to a recalibrated perspective–on business, the

environment, politics, family, our national existence.

Remarkable in its insights, profoundly moving, wonderfully

written and reported, this revealing portrait of a generation and

of an era, and of the impact of the 1960s on our lives today, lets

us be present at this reunion ourselves, and join in these frank

conversations about America then, now, and tomorrow.

  前前后后两个星期看完，有些章节没看。看得比较快，有一些概念还是不太清晰。没有练习题，也不知道自己实际掌握了多少。例题有bug，不能完整运行（即使上o'reily下载源代码包也是如此） 。还有，翻译有些生硬，一句话要读几次才能明白。
