| 520 | |a Adulthood is undergoing profound transformations. This book puts today's challenges into new perspective by exploring how past generations navigated the passage to maturity, achieved intimacy and connection, raised children, sought meaning in work, and responded to loss. Whereas adulthood once meant culturally-prescribed roles and relationships, the social and economic convulsions of the last sixty years have transformed it fundamentally, tearing up those shared scripts and leaving adults to fashion meaning and coherence in an increasingly individualistic culture. Emphasizing adulthood's joys and fulfillments as well as its frustrations and regrets, the author shows how cultural and historical circumstances have consistently reshaped what is means to be a grown-up in contemporary society.-- |c From publisher's description. | ||
