      abstract = {Jammed in between the garish showboating of the baby  boomers and the tabloid-trash stunts of the millennials,  the discerning generation that gave us Yahoo! and Nirvana  has been quietly and inexorably changing the face of  American culture. The men and women who came of age in the  era of Lollapalooza have been underrepresented for too long  in pop sociology, but reporter and essayist Jeff Gordinier  argues that it's time for the slackers to rise up and take  charge. He takes the reader along on an eye-opening journey  from Prague to San Francisco, from Woodstock '94 to Us  Weekly, in his quest to find the essence of X. Along the  way he shows how Gen X innovations in art, comedy,  technology, activism, and (gasp!) business have come to  define the way we live now.--From publisher description.},
