The Obedient And The Rebellious Are Here, The Cherished And The Sacrificed, The Children Catapulted Into Adult Responsibility, The Adults Who Have Yet To Forsake The Protections Of Childhood. What Emerges In This History As Never Before Is A Vast, Richly Textured Picture Of Youth As A Changing Constant Of Culture, Society, Economics, Politics, And Art, And As A Uniquely Complex Experience Of Acculturation In Every Life.
