This collection of essays explores the discrete events and trends - the social barometers - that have coalesced to produce the world we know today. The author covers a range of subjects, including sexual liberation, changes in childbearing, the growing tension between individual and community rights, and the increasingly politicized dynamics of social institutions (and schools in particular). Through an analysis of the past, Sarason seeks to enable the reader to understand and recognize the elements that will have the biggest impact on the future.
