Kurzbeschreibung

We are the first generation to raise children, the first to create our own music, the first to protest in the streets, the first to indulge in premarital intimacy, and the first to claim our own mass-media culture -- or so goes our charming conceit. In this rollicking collection of deluded commentaries, self-appointed baby-boomer spokesman Charlie Clark gives credence to the boomers' conviction that no tree falls on the American landscape unless our generation witnesses it. With essays on parenthood, suburban life, music, education, technology, health, and aging, the Boomers' Secret supplies the straight dope on such phenomena as why the Big Bang of rock music still reverberates on oldies radio and why the debate in Washington over Social Security is all about the joy we bring to the younger generations. After all, what comes to us more naturally than a guidebook for the generation that synthesized the entire human endeavor into handy instruction manuals?
