About this title: Basing their vision on a provocative theory of American history as series of recurring 80- to 100-year cycles, the authors predict that, just after the millennium, America will enter a new era that will culminate with a political and social crisis comparable to the American Revolution, the Civil War, and World War II. "The Fourth Turning" shows how it is not too early--or too late--to prepare for our next rendezvous with destiny.

"A totally different view of history. This book was really interesting to read 12 years after being published in that it was accurate to what it has prophesied. Meticulously written by two guys who really know their stuff."
"I had read an excellent article that synopsized the book and decided I'd like to read the source material. Although it was good, the article had held most of the interesting data so I learned little more and found the book pretty much a waste after having read the article."
"The information in the book was actually interesting but the book itself was hard to get through. I liked thinking about the differences of the various generations and the personality they have and why. Just a little dry."
"A two-star, but for the creative theory that will stick with me regarding time, events, and the history of mankind. Random events, linear time, and now these guys remind us of cylicality, seasons and "saeculums." Read the first 50 or so pages and then skip straight to the fourth turning section that takes up the final quarter of the book."
