Reseña del libro "The Sixties"

The sixth edition of The Sixties is a provocative account of a transformative era in American history, exploring the significant political, social, and cultural changes that many citizens found to be not only necessary, but mandatory.The book explores the 1960s both chronologically and thematically, from the 1960 presidential election and Greensboro sit-ins into the early 1970s, including American withdrawal from Vietnam and the fight for women's liberation. It examines the unique movements that merged during and after 1968 to form a "sixties culture" that advocated empowerment and liberation. The final Legacies chapter and Additional Reading section have been revised and updated for the sixth edition, now including more recent material to reinforce the book's themes and explore the impacts of the sixties that are still felt today. Additional coverage of women, the LGBT community, and the Latino/a community paints a richer portrait of the decade of tumult and change.Lucid and stimulating, The Sixties is an accessible text ideal for students and general readers interested in 1960s America and the history of social movements.
