Synopsis

NATIONAL BESTSELLER . Discover the game-changing theory of the cycles of history and what past generations can teach us about living through times of upheaval-with deep insights into the roles that Boomers, Generation X, and Millennials have to play. First comes a High, a period of confident expansion. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion. Then comes an Unraveling, in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis-the Fourth Turning-when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. William Strauss and Neil Howe will change the way you see the world-and your place in it. With blazing originality, The Fourth Turning illuminates the past, explains the present, and reimagines the future. Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America's past will predict what comes next. Strauss and Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back five hundred years and uncover a distinct pattern- Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four twenty-year eras-or "turnings"-that comprise history's seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth. Illustrating this cycle through a brilliant analysis of the post-World War II period, The Fourth Turning offers bold predictions about how all of us can prepare, individually and collectively, for this rendezvous with destiny., "A startling vision of what the cycles of history predict for the future." -- USA Weekend This astonishing book will change the way you see the world--and your place in it. With startling originality, The Fourth Turning illuminates the past, explains the present, and reimagines the future. Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America's past will predict its future. William Strauss and Neil Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back five hundred years and uncover a distinct pattern: Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four eras--or "turnings"--that last about twenty years and that always arrive in the same order. First comes a High, a period of confident expansion as a new order takes root after the old has been swept away. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion against the now-established order. Then comes an Unraveling, an increasingly troubled era in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis--the Fourth Turning--when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. Together, the four turnings comprise history's seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth. Strauss and Howe locate 1990s America as midway through an Unraveling, putting us currently in the era of Crisis. In a brilliant analysis of the post-World War II period, they show how generational dynamics are the key to understanding the cycles of American history. They draw vivid portraits of all the modern generations: the can-do G.I.s, the mediating Silent, the values-absorbed Boomers, the pragmatic 13ers, and the Millennials. Placed in the context of history's long rhythms, the persona and role of each generation become clear--as does the inevitability of a Crisis. Whatever your stage of life, The Fourth Turning offers bold predictions about how all of us can prepare, individually and collectively, for America's next rendezvous with destiny., NATIONAL BESTSELLER - Discover the game-changing theory of the cycles of history and what past generations can teach us about living through times of upheaval--with deep insights into the roles that Boomers, Generation X, and Millennials have to play.

Highly recommended book that explains the world today
This Fourth Turning is an eye opening read that goes in depth into American history & it's "Turnings". Dated back to the 1400's up until today & even predicts what is possible during the fourth turning - that being a Crisis. Written in 1997 I believe the predictions given explain a lot about what modern day looks like today. While reading this book I tried to connect the dot's to what modern day looks like & how it is where we got to where we are today. Honestly while reading the more I realized that history does repeat itself time after time again. It was though, a more challenging read for me as well as more of a novice reader, I was recommended this book by being shown the YouTube video explaining this books main points.

While reading this book I tried to connect the dot's to what modern day looks like & how it is where we got to where we are today. Honestly while reading the more I realized that history does repeat itself time after time again. It was though, a more challenging read for me as well as more of a novice reader, I was recommended this book by being shown the YouTube video explaining this books main points. I was inspired by the video & had to go more in depth with the topic which lead me to read the book. The Fourth Turning sums up American history's turning points, how society changes around every 20 or so. It explains the good, bad, culture, dreams, happiness, sadness, thoughts, politics, economics. It's a book I think that should be taught in schools. A book that all Americans should read to get a glimpse of history, it's turning society. Quoting the author here about the turning points. "The First Turning is a High, an upbeat era of strengthening of institutions & weakening individualism, when a new civic order implants & the old values regime decays. The second Turning is an Awakening, a passionate era of spiritual upheaval, when the civic order comes under attack from a new values regime. The Third Turning is an Unraveling, a downcast era of strengthening individualism & weakening institutions, when the old civic order decays & the new values regime implants. The Fourth Turning is a Crisis, a decisive era of secular upheaval, when the values regime propels the replacement of the old civic order with a new one" That's quoted. This sums up about 600 years of American history. Before America was even independent. A great read I highly recommend more people read it.

A fundamental change in the US is taking place now.
A historical summary of the phases of change for about each hundred years in the US. At each final (fourth) turning deep serious changes take place. Listen to the current news and the "prophecy" is taking place & coming true.

The Fourth Turning
I read other readers' comments about this book the history/politics blog http://belmont.blogspot.com/. The thesis is that US history follows predictable cycles. We are currently in early days of a cycle called "fourth turning". This cycle is one of chaos as events take a new direction and will last about 20-25 years. Following current events the reader can see how we are indeed in a new era of big changes and no clue how it will play out. Very interesting and thoughtful book with new ideas. Recommend it to readers who have curiosity about history and history in the making.I read other readers' comments about this book the history/politics blog http://belmont.blogspot.com/.
