We know there's an active boomer cohort in Australia and in the UK, but a new book examines the boomer generation in Russia. Russia's Sputnik Generation: Soviet Baby Boomers Talk About Their Lives, by Dr. Donald J. Raleigh, a historian at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, explores the lives of eight Russians who came of age after World War ll. From Sputnik through Gorbachev and Russia's current economy, Raleigh presents in-depth interviews with Boomers who have their own take on the second half of the 20th century.
