    af Joseph Buchdahl

    People have been gambling, in one form or another, for as long as history itself. Why? Money, entertainment, escape and a desire to win are all traditional explanations.

    My hair is a statement and always will be, even when I no longer have any. The social revolution of the Swinging Sixties led to a renaissance of unchecked hair growth, and long hair, especially on men, was worn as a political or countercultural symbol of protest and as an expression of masculinity. No-one who was affected by one of a turbulent decade's loudest controversies - or anyone who ever wondered what all the fuss was about - will fail to be interested in this personal account of when the 'us and them' divide between youth and elders was most profound. An engaging, accessible mix of popular culture, social history and politics.

    From the Watergate scandal, deposition of Haile Selassie and the expulsion of Solzhenitsyn from the Soviet Union, to ABBA's landmark victory at the Eurovision Song Contest and the production of the very first Volkswagen Golf--a concise, entertaining survey of an important year in 20th-century history, published to coincide with the 50th anniversary of 1974. 1974 was a year of major changes around the world. Presidents resigned, emperors were deposed and new governments came to power. In society, the second wave of feminism grew in strength and the rights of gays and ethnic minorities were more powerfully asserted. The arts and the entertainment industry were in the midst of a period of great creativity and innovation. The roots of many aspects of today's societies which we take for granted lie in the 1970s and particularly in this, the pivotal year of the decade.
