The Fourth Turning: What the Cycles of History Tell Us about America's Next Rendezvous with Destiny
by William Strauss, Neil Howe
Recently, I’ve been drawn towards looking at the world and life through a more cyclical lens, rather than my default linear one.
My parents begged me to read this book over ten years ago. They found much value and even hope in it back then. As I read it, in the midst of the COVID era and extreme polarization, it was valuable to see current events as a somewhat predictable cycle.
I wasn’t ready for it in my twenties, but in the current times, it’s a fascinating read. As with many things these days, I ended with more questions than answers.
This is a fave of Steve Bannon, who is not a fave of mine. However, I don’t think it’s wise to discount theories simply because someone I don’t agree with sees value in it.
For the independent thinkers out there, this may be an interesting read.
