Want to figure out what makes your parents tick? Check out this atlas that covers the lives of those Baby Boomers, defined as those born between 1946 and 1964. Each chapter covers a post-World War II decade from the late 40's through "the future" and discusses the politics, social structures, entertainment and much more for each ten year span. A good source of statistics as well as an overview of a variety of trends, both serious and fun.
