Margaret Mead steps into her own culture to examine the youth shaped by "a new era, one shaped by the bomb, satellites, jet flight, free-wheeling technology, the population explosion, the breakdown of cities & the destruction of the natural environment."
Is the "Vicki Morgan," to whom the book is inscribed, THE Vicki Morgan of Bloomingdale's fame who was the mistress of Alfred Bloomingdale? The one who sued Bloomingdale for palimony, and then was murdered by her lover in 1983? My research fell short of confirmartion.
