Renowned journalist Don Lattin interprets the American spiritual and religious landscape since the Sixties with insight, wit, and meticulous reporting. What David Brooks did for the American social and commercial landscape in the bestselling Bobos in Paradise, Lattin does for the spiritual landscape, showing how the Sixties have had a profound transformative impact in every area of spirituality. This is the first comprehensive look at the spiritual legacy of the Sixties and Seventies, as seen through the lives of those raised amid some of the era's wildest experimentation.

Don Lattin is one of the nation's leading journalists, covering mainstream and alternative religious movements and figures in America. He is the award-winning religion writer for the San Francisco Chronicle, and the author of Seeking, a popular spirituality column in the newspaper's Sunday edition. He is the co-author of Shopping for Faith. He lives in Berkeley, California.

A very readable and thoughtful book about the generation that came of age during the

Sixties. The intervening decades have comprised an incredible odyssey. But, while many experienced this profound societal and spiritual journey, few have completely understood it. This book should go a long way in helping to fill this gap. -- Orville Schell, University of California, Berkeley
