Theodore Roszak’s genius in The Making of a Counter Culture is certain once again to revolutionize our understanding in his new book, The Making of an Elder Culture.

His latest insightful treat offers one of the more salutary visions of what may be possible as the “saging” demographic continues to swell in numbers. As he says in his foreword, “Every institution in our society will be transformed as its population drifts further and further from competitive individualism, military–industrial bravado, and the careerist rat race. It is as if the freeways of the world will one day soon begin to close down, starting with the fast lane and finally turning into pastures and meadows.”

The link below will take you to an excerpt and the opportunity to purchase the book. I plan on reading it and am certain you will want to do so as well!
