Counterculture Through The Ages

“This is a brilliant book. A sweeping history of countercultures through the ages. Defying authority with creative edge has been a powerful force throughout history, and [this] captures the magic with the authentic insight of someone who’s been a rider on that wave.” - Walter Isaacson “I am forever grateful to Ken Goffman for serving as my first guide through the starlit mire of countercultural thought and activity. Read this book, by all means. He knows his way around.” - Douglas Rushkoff “I read Ken Goffman’s least musings with utterly focused, indeed almost reverent attention.” - Bruce Sterling”
