In Boomers, Xers, and Other Strangers, Rick and Kathy Hicks explore why different generations hold distinct values shaped by the cultural climate of their upbringing. Their research demonstrates that experiences around age ten cast long shadows over our beliefs and behaviors.

By examining historical touchpoints—from the civil rights era and Vietnam to the rise of personal computing—the authors reveal how each generation’s defining moments influence views on authority, work, and community.

The book offers clear, research-backed insights and actionable suggestions for bridging generational divides at home, in the office, and in broader society.
