'An important reappraisal of a decade that changed us, for good and
ill' Sunday Times No era in recent history has been both more
celebrated and vilified than the 1960s. And at the heart of all
that controversy - the music, drugs, fashion, hopes, dreams and
political movements - is sex. But were the 1960s really a great
time of liberation, joyful experimentation and celebrations of
youth? Growing Up takes an unflinching look at the dark underbelly
of the sexual revolution. In this wide-ranging and eye-opening
survey of the sexual landscape of the 1960s, Peter Doggett has
assembled a dozen little-known stories that reveal how the sexual
revolution transformed people's lives - for better or worse.
'Fascinating...shows rather conclusively that the sixties was not a
sexual paradise' Evening Standard 'Creates an account of the 1960s
that, unlike most popular histories, does not edit out the grim
bits' Mail on Sunday
