Finally, it all makes sense....
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
The causes and influences of the GenX crowd are lucidly laid out in this most excellent book. I found myself constantly thinking, "Yes, I remember that," and "Of course, doesn't everybody feel that way?" The author does make our efforts seem a bit doomed--sometimes merely by the sheer numerical force of the generations that preceed us. He does however succeed in explaining who and what this "us" is and why it exists. The only really annoying bit is that the author insists on christening this generation yet again--this time as "The Free," an especially corny title that does not roll off the tongue as nicely as "GenX," which he claims GenXers all hate. Is it GenX of me to like the name out of spite??
