This book aims to promote understanding between the generations. This is vitally important in our most defining relationships - those between parents and children. We are so influenced by our parents that understanding them will help us to understand why we are influenced by them - and, therefore, help us to understand ourselves better. This can be extended to all other relationships - with bosses, teachers, grandparents and so on. Once you understand their 'generational' behaviour, you'll have a clearer picture of why they are like they are. So, chuck the tranquillisers and read this book. Life will never be the same again.
