The New Old: How the Boomers Are Changing Everything . . . Again

Focusing on the Baby Boomer generation, this argument explores how this� group is permanently destroying previous attitudes toward aging, retirement, senior citizens, and even the concept of death. An analysis of welfare rates and health-care costs demonstrates that the "Boomers" are influencing everything from education and employment to housing, health, beauty, and sex. With solid statistical support, this groundbreaking study takes a closer look at new kinds of social relationships as well as new products that can reduce or even eliminate the effects of aging. The topics covered offer a sneak preview of an imminently new society-one in which receiving a gold watch at the age of 65 will simply mean the first half of life is over.
