Synopsis
A fascinating historical journey through modern technology that reimagines American generations born since 1900., Every twenty years a new generation rises, but who and what defines these generations? And could current generational tags mislead and miss the point?In this insightful analysis of technology history since 1900, Dr. Rick Chromey offers a fresh perspective for understanding what makes a generation tick and differ from others. Within GenTech , readers learn how every generation uniquely interacts with particular technologies that define historical temperament and personality and why current generational labels are more fluid than fixed, and more loopy than linear. Consequently, three major generational constellations emerge, each containing four, twenty-year generations that overlap, merge, and blend: The Audio Generations (1900-1950) : Transportation-Telephone Generation (1900-1920), Motion Picture Generation (1910-1930), Radio Generation (1920-1940), Vinyl Record Generation (1930-1950) The Visual Generations (1940-1990) : Television Generation (1940-1960), Space Generation (1950-1970), Gamer Generation (1960-1980) and Cable Television Generation (1970-1990) The Digital Generations (1980-2000) : Personal Computer-Cell Phone Generation (1980-2000), Net Generation (1990-2010), iTech Generation (2000-2020), and Robotics Generation (2010-2030) Dive in and revel in this exciting, compelling, and novel perspective to understanding recent American generations with GenTech ., Every twenty years a new generation rises, but who and what defines these generations?
