Publisher Description: The British Invasion, Andy Warhol, Swinging London, the Summer of Love, disco dancing, and polyester, this is the era that most people think of when they think of "pop culture." So much changed during these decades--from technological advances such as the moon landing, to conflicts like the Vietnam War. These changes all had a great impact on pop culture. |
