- The New York Times called Dr. Roszak "the generation’s cheerleader" for baby boomers, chronicling and extolling their youthful counterculture (a name he coined) and campus rebellions, and their "journey from hippies to hip replacement." He taught for 35 years at what is now California State University, East Bay, retiring in 1998.

Sources: An Anthology of Contemporary Materials… di Theodore Roszak
Published in 1972, has some interesting texts from that era. Divided into sections: Person, Body, Community, Whole Earth, and Transcendence,
I am one for a good, hard-thinking book...but this one was well above my head. There were moments where I felt like I was with it and totally saw the connections between Frankenstein and gendered biases in science...then, pages later, nope.
