Countercultures

by J. Milton Yinger

From Simon & Schuster, Countercultures is J. Milton Yinger's exploration of the promise and peril of a world turned upside down.

Countercultures offers a new framework for analyzing tensions between the culturally established & the marginal, and discusses the emergence of countercultures in terms of ethical, epistemological, and aesthetic reversals of the status quo.
